U.S. Spelling note

I have re-inserted a note on U.S. spelling ("gray" vs. "grey"), as is common in Wiki articles featuring internationally variant spelling. Such a note was deleted in an earlier edit. If it's felt that such a note is not appropriate, let's talk about it here. Sharkford 18:27, 2004 Dec 3 (UTC)

I don't object to it, but I am not sure it's particularly necessary. Both "gray" and "grey" are commonly seen in American English, and at least in my experience people rarely even notice or care about the difference (unlike, say, color/colour, where "color" is clearly dominant and "colour" clearly appears non-American). --Delirium 21:32, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)
I am OK with this too, since it is an international article. Peter K Burian 15:59, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

Iam OK with this tool Joe Marion ASCDI NATD

Right Template

I'm not sure the the Template:Grey_market is pertinent here. How is the illustration "The hand that will rule the world" relevant?

--213.190.87.194 (talk) 16:22, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

I think the template is appropriate. If {{Grey market}} doesn't belong on Grey market, it doesn't belong anywhere.
I agree with you on the illustration, but that's not a subject for this talk page, that would be better on the template's talk page. That being said, I've already edited the template to remove the illustration. TJRC (talk) 20:59, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

Legality?

The article currently states 'buying grey market goods is not illegal', but I don't think it's as simple as that. Here's a report on a recent UK case where the Supreme Court ruled that the unauthorised resale of 'grey market' imports was illegal: [1] The full details don't seem to be available, but at the very least it's clear that such reselling is not always legal in all jurisdictions.

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Grey market. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:
