My total support goes to Stefy, and also as an Asia purchaser, I too feel damaged in my investment by this illegal distribution. Another general thought. If the few (thankfully) merchants without scruples will not stop this behaviour, they will damage the whole system, because the trust in the merchant is what makes people buy. If people will see and learn more of merchants stealing each other's works, they will buy less or even stop buying here at all, because nobody wants to be frauded on his/her own money especially when it's not abundant (which is true of most artists). - Orio
