In Reply To 2nd! Isn't there legal action that can be taken? posted by Draker (Eugene, OR) on December 03, 2010 at 08:51 PM

Message that none of the originators patented their products. Its kind of a joke because it can take a long time for a patent to be approved and in that time a competitor can steal a product and be selling and gaining money of your design.
Its sad but even a law suit would be not worth it and with him being in Canada its hard to pursue legal action because of differing international laws.
The only thing the originators can do is hope the public is going to support them. Karma is a bitch and VUk will get his sooner or later.
