62The defendants in the main proceedings also rely on Case C-323/93 Centre d'insémination de la Crespelle [1994] ECR I-5077, paragraph 29, Joined Cases C-34/95 to C-36/95 De Agostini and TV-shop [1997] ECR I-3843, paragraphs 43 to 47, Case C-189/95 Franzen [1997] ECR I-5909, paragraphs 67 to 73, and TK-Heimdienst, cited above, paragraphs 27 to 37, to show that where, as in the case before the national court, access to end consumers in the Member State into which products are imported is prevented or rendered more difficult than for domestic products by national rules, these rules amount to a restriction on the free movement of goods, even where they merely regulate a selling arrangement which does not relate to the characteristics of the product concerned.
