flightsim have so far been the easiest site to deal with. Seems like there are actually people on the other end. Quick return and responses and concern it seems.

OK, I did not know about the Asobo content in the product. That is a different problem from an incorrect product description. But before tarring this vendor, do consider they’ve been around for twenty years and have created lots of flightsim products; this isn’t some shady guy in a basement trying to get rich quick. It also wouldn’t be the first time I’ve had someone accidentally include things in a zip file they did not mean to include so don’t jump to conclusions on intent.
I don’t feel the need to issue a statement, but I hope you see that we listened to you and treated you fairly.

Thank you Nels,
I believe that you have done both of those things. I think you’ll find I’m extremely fair in my judgements and do not make them in haste.
I also do not take these accusations lightly. Unfortunately, it is already been concluded (via e-mails from the actual vendor to another e-tailer that have been shared with me) that the vendor knowingly included these assets in his distribution. I’m not implying any intent here, just stating known facts.
This was not a mistake by the vendor. This might be easier to overlook if it were not accompanied by marketing material that implied that this was a full-scale model. Enough so that another e-tailer believed it as such.
I do appreciate your time in this regard and would ask you two questions that I would like to include in my review of your website.
-
Will you be removing this copyrighted material from your store?
-
Will you offer those who have already downloaded it compensation in some form or an outright return (preferred) for this product if they wish?
Thank you Nels,
