Huang purchased Japanese imported multivitamin from store on Taobao.com, and the product photos showed no Chinese label on the packaging. Therefore, Huang sued the store and claimed for ten times compensation.  

However, information such as the shelf life of the product was found in the purchase details online. Therefore, the court did not consider it caused misleading to the consumer, so court decided that the store shall refund Huang’s payment and rejected the claim for ten times compensation.
