Why is there a need for you to spam TWICE in the forums? You created a suggestion topic too. Don't you know this is called spamming? I request you all to stop spamming and contact Merch team directly. We come here to view legitimate topics, not your plead guilty and payment topics which are basically also a copy of one another, the irony.

Agreed! MBA is very good at responding within a few days. Either message MBA support directly and wait your turn or post once in the forum. They'll eventually get back with you. Looks like MBA has finally come down on copycats, and it sounds like you may be one.... I've got hundreds that I am about to report as Pixel for Pixel copies. What about you @Pratik? I know you are active here. Are you seeing a lot of copycats on your designs?

@Jumping Rope & Eating Cookies

I am indeed having lot of copycats too and I will be proactively reporting them as well. They can't simply make money off my work and undercut me, get suspended and then plead guilty. I work hard and also pay my designers to get these designs up. If they don't sell, I am losing money both ways. They need to understand that what they are doing is plain and simple wrong.

I understand that not everyone has designing talent but even when they make money from p4p copies, they still are NOT hiring designers to create original designs for them. They just don't want to spend money or be creative or original - all they want to do is copy successful selling designs. That's not just done here in USA, especially on Amazon. And they need to understand this.

Yeah man. It's insane what these people are doing. Ive got a spread sheet of my top 300 sellers and I can't even get to them because I am so busy doing other things. So, I feel your pain. I'm at 8k. Where you at @Pratik?

At 8K as well since quite long but sales have recently plummeted. Hoping they'll pick up soon.

Do you have an engineer that can block messages from the same IP working for Merch?
