The site you are referring to is likely chinese, and as such they just ignore the laws of most everyone else in cases like this.

The recasting of GW or FW parts in the US is illegal and such sites would be shut down if they operated in the US or UK.

EDIT: don't be surprised if nothing happens. England isn't going to invade China for simple cases of copyright infringement.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/409811/3555624.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/409811/3555624.page GMT if someone notices http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/409811/3555788.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/409811/3555788.page GMT if someone notices

Recasting of other companies' products is legally wrong and ethically wrong.
GW may be the scum of the earth or the holiest of holies... they're getting wronged here.

However, your question is whether or not it's right for you to report these recasters to GW.

If you like GW, then at best you're bringing it to their attention.
I personally dislike GW's prices and believe you should simply mind your own business.

Realistically though, there's nothing you, I, or GW can do about this matter considering the reacasters likely lie in a country where copyrights are not well-enforced (...like China).
If money-loving lawsuit-flinging Apple is struggling with issues like this, there's really nothing GW can do.


As an aside, these recasters are probably doing a shoddy job anyways.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/409811/3555798.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/409811/3555798.page GMT Re:if someone notices http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/409811/3557557.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/409811/3557557.page GMT if someone notices GW is more than equipped to police it's own copyright issues.

As much as I hate on IP and copyright, blatantly recasting with the intent of selling it doesn't benefit anyone who cares about "the hobby".]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/409811/3557584.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/409811/3557584.page GMT
