Groupon India drops rogue deals on American Eagle, Abercrombie

Groupon India has removed at least two deals for clothes by retailers American Eagle Outfitters Inc and Abercrombie & Fitch from its web site, because it did not have the rights to sell them, the company told Reuters.

"The retailer is not authorised to sell this product, we will investigate the situation to determine appropriate next steps," American Eagle Outfitters spokesperson Rachel DiCarlo told Reuters in an email. She said the company could not be specific at this time about whether it will pursue legal charges.

Crazeal.com, a Groupon-owned Indian web site that offers daily deals on items ranging from clothing to spa deals to vacations, did not respond to an email seeking comment, but its parent company, Groupon, said they have taken the deal away.
