Today I bought FAKE Mia Maples merch !! If you are interested in buying my REAL merch: fanjoy.co/collections/mia-maples New Video's Fridays & most Sundays !! Instagram: @miamaples Snapchat: @miamaples Twitter: @miamapless :)
Love the collection, still won't be able to get anything since the shipping to germany is so expensive. Which is totally not your fault, don't get me wrong. I love the sweatpants so much, sad to live on the other side of the ocean 😅
If I were you, I would get a lawyer to send what's known as a Cease and Desist letter telling them to stop or you will sue them. It's not about the money. You can lose the rights to use your own name as a brand if you let them continue. You've worked way too hard to let that happen.
Winter Fyre yeah I’m the redbubble person I’m going to delete it when I get my laptop working. I’ve made like $3 off it and would be happy to give the artist that money when I have it
@@boymomx3OG Either Mia, or the artist who made the animated Mia face, because stealing someone's work/name is NOT okay. This has been a thing for a while, and a lot of designers have been hit by this too.... a lady who makes fantasy wings had her design stolen by a Kardashian(spelling may be off, honestly don't care about these horrible people) for her halloween costume, another lady HAND STITCHED a vintage dress to have some cheap chinese company make a cheap piece of garbage costume version of the dress. And there's so many more stories like this. It's a very serious issue, peoples livelihoods can be on the line.
No get a Lawyer asap or ACCC(Unless that's Australia's government thing only). For the fact that someone's using your name and can be potential fraud and that if you just reported them to rebubble. They can make another one.
@@MIAKUMACHAN she can report this infringement to the web site. and get the designer of the cartoon of her to complain too. that would hopefully get it off the web site and stop people getting ripped off and lining the pocket of law breakers
@@tabithaabbott6310 I personally don't see getting upset about someone blatantly stealing your image and name to make fake merch blowing something out of proportion. lol
What if the companies that are selling your fake merch sees this video and then they screenshot the images of you wearing their merch and then they use you promoting their products in their website?
I thought the same thing but then I realized anyone who would be searching for her Kerch would’ve probably seen this video and wouldn’t get it. This is Mia’s nice way of exposing them! Haha
Hopefully you bring back the "I'm an odd shape" merch because I really like it but I hadn't found your channel yet when you released it so i wasn't able to purchase it
Darling, your name is YOUR brand. You should do something about it, otherwise there will come a time when you won't even be able to use your own name 😮
someone: stole Mia's designes and sells it on website Mia: I don't wanna be rude :( Mia! You are too kind for this world ;-; Love you and your REAL merch
I know this is a cute and sweet video but I wish we could talk more about art theft and how badly it hurts artists. My friends and I have experienced countless people jacking our artwork trying to sell it on sites like these and it really takes away money, exposure and possible opportunities from honest creators. I’ve had to file tons of reports on people just slapping my art on shirts and never seen a penny out of it while struggling to make rent :c these thieves just get it taken down IF the artist ever finds it and can prove that the work is theirs... And I’ve seen people do this in Facebook groups and act like ripping off designs doesn’t matter because they’re cool or they just traced it....a lot of non artists don’t realize how much this actually takes away from us.
It honestly sucks that mia has to go through this like, it is really rude. At least she tried to make fun of it instead just having a full blown melt down😂
You have to be the sweetest person on RU-vid. Who else would take a picture of their self and write a note on it to send a fan? If I wasn’t on a fixed income I would go and buy some stuff!!!! Much love from Tennessee ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This approach she did is so Mia! This is the best approach she could have done where she kept her face and brand. Such class and a great attitude and we love her for it!!
I always *hate* when I see *"fans"* selling merch using their idols image and name and making money from it (especially when they make things *super expensive* like..)
SvobodovaEva It’s wrong to steal somebody else’s brand to make money for themselves period. It doesn’t matter if it’s a copy and paste or if it’s just using their name. They’re profiting off of someone else’s hard work.. Now, fan art is different but the stuff in this video is wrong.
I'm going to assume the artwork itself wasnt centered, and they just saved the picture and reprinted it. If they cropped it, they could fix it, or maybe they did just crop it all wonky before printing
I don’t think I was watching when you had the “I’m an odd shape” mercy, but if you bring it back I’d love it because IT’S SO TRUE OF ME!! No brand really carries anything that fits all of me properly
I bought your merch this morning and I was high key having a mini heart attack because I’m hoping I’ll be one of the 32 people to get a Polaroid. Love you soooo much Mia!!
@MiaMaples I have to admit upon frist seeing this video description and a few mins in I was thinking " what is a hard core fan can't afford true merch thinking it would be cheaper. Then I click on your real merch link and I am floored at the reasonable prices, bloody brilliant you made a great merch line and affordable. Thank you for putting in the time and effort to make quality items that alot of people can acquire. That's what makes you a phenomenal person and RU-vidr.
Yeihhhhhhh, you're the best, I'm early in this video finally!!! Sooooo I just want to say that I've been learning English watching your videos you're the bestttttt. Greeting from Mexico!! 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
I’m so glad you released merch, I’ve legit watched almost all of your videos and was so sad bc I was a little late to the party for the “I’m an odd shape” merch 💜 bought a shirt and can’t wait
Purchased the "I'm sorry 🌻" hoodie! Can't wait to get it!! You and Bailey Sarian are the only youtubers merch I will ever purchase and ❤ and truly support!! Mia is a legit queen! 👑
Love the merch!! Living in Canada pretty much in the middle of no where in Alberta means the price of shipping ended up being almost more than the sweater :( super bummed about that I figured it would have been a bit more Canadian friendly with the shipping and prices!!
Please don’t let this give you a bad impression of redbubble as a whole! There are some really talented artists on there that actually care about quality!! Sorry you got ripped off though!
Elizabeth Easley of course it sucks that she got ripped off but there’s a lot of hard working artists on redbubble whose work shouldn’t be neglected because of users who break the rules
Holly Bowes I mean the video wasn’t about Redbubble, it was about her fake merchandise. It just happened that Redbubble was selling it, she never said the whole site was bad, therefor your comment is irrelevant to what’s being said.
I really love your joggers and hoodie. I enjoy the cute little phrases because I like buying merch from youtubers without their actual name on it. The signature phrases and sunflowers are super cute and so you.
Woooooo!! I got the sweater and joggers and I am so excited! Being Canadian, I know we say “I’m sorry” as much as we breathe 😂😂 thanks for being amazing, Mia!! ❤️
I would contact the companies and tell them to take the fake merch, especially the one with the drawing, down from the websites. If they don’t have your permission or the artists I would think you could take some kind of action if it bothers you. 🙂 Jeffree would sue! 🤣
Instead of giving all the scammers your coin, you should have read the 50+ reviews on that baby onesie because WHO is getting and then posting glowing reviews on that LMAO
How are you like the most beautiful person I have ever seen, and you are like amazing, personality and all, love you Mia ♥️♥️♥️ btw I watched the whole thing and didn't skip the ads cause you gotta start saving money for Christmas shopping lmao
I would also be alarmed to know there’s a dupe of my cc info out there! You might want to call your cc company just to be on the safe side. So sorry you’ve been going through this. Yucky
