I did as well. Based on the geographic locations they are advertising, it seems they are betting on the estate not attempting to enforce IP rights outside of the US. It's a real shame and certainly there will be many an uneducated consumer who ends up disappointed.

As many as possible should go to the link and report it for IP violation. I just did
How did you do it? Instagram says only a Trademark holder can report an IP claim on instagram.

yes, i got :
"Please note that a report alleging infringement or violation of rights must come from the rights holder or a person authorized to act on their behalf (for example, a lawyer or an agent). If you are not the rights holder or their authorized representative, we will not be able to process your report."

They have been served with a CnD and have chosen to ignore it. They're only digging themselves into a deeper legal hole.
They've done jail time before, so they know to not drop the soap.

Good, I hope the estate prevails. These are usually long battles with highly specialized (and expensive) counsel. Would love for the family to find a way to monetize the Dumble legacy in a respectful manner to fund this endeavor.

The current US trademark owners are well aware. The European mark owners obtained it fraudulently (as I understand it). I assume they plan to contest and/or overturn the mark.

I am no longer at all convinced that things are progressing well with the lawyers! :
I am disgusted: all the major European distributors offer these "Dumble" pedals without hesitation! :evil:

Disgusting! :oops:

They are aware of this and working to stop this as well as getting the mark back. Time will tell how successful they are.
These guys are slime.
