First off -- IMO - something like this just isn't a big deal. It's not the sort of thing that I would get all steamed up about. I wouldn't start out of the gate by making the worst possible assumptions -- sans any real information....and then running off half-cocked on those assumptions.
It's possible that someone made an innocent mistake.
That said, I would strongly recommend handling such a situation by first sending a polite IM to the artist/merchant in question. Ask them about the image -- nicely. Don't take the stinging approach of an accuser. You might just be wrong about the situation...........
If the artist/merchant doesn't provide you with a satisfactory response, in a reasonable amount of time (this would include no response at all) -- then I would recommend forwarding the issue on to a Mod.
And then I would forget about it.
Some things aren't worth starting a big fight over.
