But still different kung makikita muna ni buyer yung ad, then decides on purchasing the item. Parang GAS.
and the point? on the contrary, youve brought up a very good point. if one post a guitar that looks and appears like a Fender, it induces GAS to a person that is after that. STILL, the BRAND LOGO has been utilized to create the sale. that is infringement parin dba?
My thoughts too. Not sure how this would be resolved. Kung 100% no fake items or may exceptions. Yun nga, pag personal item naman.
like you, ive got no beef against personal items. if you wanna decal your guitar DON JON, i wouldnt give a rats ass (but it would certainly baffle me
). however, i think it ceases to be a personal item when it is put on SALE. you may not be selling it for the look but buyers are attracted because of the look it gives. and once again, the Brand/Logo which is owned by another company is being misused. therefore, infringement.
naisip ko lang na sulusyon is if someone wants to sell for example a Tokai strat re-decaled with Fender, then he can put it up as:
FS: Tokai strat re-decaled. if he chooses to post photos, the headstock
should be covered. if the buyer wants to see the headstock uncovered, then they can PM. anyway, they can send messages thru any means. so whether the show photos thru email, PM, YM, ICQ, then that is their business. I just think this is the only way people can go around it.
Now yung sa mga gadgets like phones/itouch copies, hindi naman sila originally different brand selling with a replaced logo. hindi dapat pinaguusapan yun. alam na agad.
