I found that etailSuperStore.com was using my images and information to sell KelpMax on the Sears marketplace! First Rays is the sole outlet for the stuff, and I have never authorized anyone else to carry it. Sheesh!

Wow! That's amazing. They're even using your name. Where do you think they got it? Is the manufacturer providing it to them with your label on it?

Atleast they seem to put a link to your shop in the ad?

But if they violate your copyright, I would report them- or maybe first I would contact them and ask what`s going on with that.

Not nice

Edit: I need glasses... I dont think that was your website after all..

Tucker, I am the "manufacturer". They have never seen one drop of the product.

All of that came straight from either my website or Amazon.com, where I also sell it.

I have contacted both them and Sears, and have been told - as if there was really no issue. - that it will be taken down.

No wonder Sears is going out of business. They've already left my town. That is some shady shit.

Well, they we're asking almost $75 for a quart bottle, almost 3x the current retail price. I suppose that if they caught some fool with an order, they'd have ordered one from me.
