Quote - Well they did finally respond....Not exactly what I expected, but at least they are pulling the mesh.

Quote -
Sir,We were made aware of the situation a couple of days ago from
a customer who purchased the item. That is a brokered item, and was submitted
by a visitor to our site.
 
That was the only sale that item made since it was submitted.
We will remove the item as soon as we are back in the office, which will be Thursday night
US pacific time. We are on the road on business and will not be able to
remove the item till then.

Regarding " I will be posting messages on this board and several others, reporting your actions."
We aslo have an attorney. A good one. If you engage in any activity or actions which damage our reputation or our ability to sell our products, you will be held financially responsible and liablefor said damages.

"If you do not I will be force to report this to your ISP, your web host and Paypal" Once again, I reiterate, any attempt to liable our us or our site, or damage our ability to make a loving , and you will be sued for lible and damages. We make every reasonable attempt tp ensure that items submitted to us are original items  of the person submitting.

As stated, we will remove your mesh tomorrow night, as we are on the road on business. We dont want it, ot need it. We made no money on it.
We will send you the email address and contact information for the person who submitted it. You can threaten that person. Dont threaten us.
If we see so much as a single word in any venue, liabiling us or our website and we we sue you personally for damages

As was pointed out, they got the mesh from a third party.  Thanks for the support and suggestions

What exactly did you expect?  From your earlier post:

Quote - To resolve this issue I have:
1) Asked Eclipse Studios to remove the product from sale.  If they do not, they will be hearing from my attorney. 

  1. They may post the mesh only if it is for free download. And if they wish to give the mesh away for free, then I expect them to post a notification stating that the original mesh was created by me.
  2. I will be posting messages on this board and several others, reporting their actions.

You went at them with guns blazing. Personally if someone sent me a letter like that I wouldn't exactly be nice and cordial in my reply back.

Right off the hop you mentioned law suits and the intention to slander their site around the internet.  Personally that wasn't very nice of you.  It also wasn't very nice to post their private correspondence to you here.

You accomplished your goal of having them remove the mesh from their site. What was the purpose of posting their reply to you other than to slander them and their reputation.

Sorry, but while I sympathize with the fact that you are upset about finding one of your meshes up for sale on their site, their reply to you was nothing less than you deserved given the way you approached them about the situation to begin with.

You get far better results with a tongue of honey vs one of flame, and you earn more friends and alies too.
