Recently, we have received contact from many fans telling us that Chinese-made exact replicas of SD have been appearing on places such as Yahoo! Auctions. We would like to thank you very much for letting us know.
It is most unfortunate, but it appears that they have already been bid upon.
It shouldn't need to be said that in these illegal acts there are two parties; those who carry them out, and those who make the purchases.
And all of the problems that arise from that act are the responsibility of both parties, without exception.
Together with our gratitude for all of your support and encouragement in our development and maturation of the doll world of our beautiful SD as they continue to grow, we would also like to ask you to please be as careful as possible of these Chinese-made exact copy SD items.
Furthermore, in the event you come across information regarding any similar matter, we would be most appreciative if you would supply this information to Volks.
Volks would be most grateful to once again receive your understanding and cooperation regarding the following.
