My friend told me that Keiko’s “Natural Hand-Dyed Sashiko Threads” are unlawfull

My friend told me that Keiko’s “Natural Hand-Dyed Sashiko Threads” are unlawfully listed without our permission. In short, they are copying just the product page to scam customers. Although this product page (2nd photo) itself won’t hurt us much because they don’t have what Keiko makes, I wanted to make it alert so that anyone who is interested in our products won’t be scammed.

We carry great pride in what we offer – from one skein to our final product such as a Jacket. We will never work with a random web company with no stories. The amount Keiko can dye is very limited. We are always in low stock, and some of the threads are back-ordered. As of now, @upcyclestitches and materialgoods_ are the only sellers we acknowledge. Upcycle Stitches is operated by Atsushi, and M/G carry Solid Natural Dye Sashiko Thread.

We live in such a world where anyone can do anything & anyone can be any master. This copy of the product page is one example, but I believe there are many similar cases like this. I just don’t know. Some may be teaching while copying what I say on Live Streaming: saying “I taught it to myself”. Therefore, I keep asking “you” as to who will listen, purchase, & enjoy Sashiko. Please be mindful when you are learning from, where you are purchasing items from, and whom you are supporting by your choice. In the real world, there are always people behind the scenes. This is the same in the Internet – just we have to be careful if the person is really there – or hiding themselves from the reality. Therefore, I say, it is “You” who can change this world.

刺し子で仲良くして頂いている方から、恵子さんの刺し子糸の販売ページがコピーされているよとの連絡がありました。恵子さんの刺し子糸を細々と販売して7年。遂にコピーされるようにまでなったかと少し笑ってしまいました。とはいえ笑ってばかりではダメで、対応は考えなければなりません。一番の対応方法はお客様に知って頂くこと。「どういう糸か」をご理解頂ければ、こういうウェブサイトで販売されるはずがないと分かって頂けるのです。日本でもこのようなコピーはあると目にしています。商品はないのに商品ページだけ作る。目的はなんとなくわかるとしても、何が楽しいんだろう…と思わずにはいられません。みなさんもお気をつけて。（私達の刺し子糸はウェブでは卸販売はしておりませんので、恵子さんのウェブサイトからお求めください）。
