Copyright Infringement?? - 3000GT/Stealth International Message Center

Isn't this illegal for an Ebay seller to sell an item displaying an official 3S International logo? This logo sure looks like one of ours. Thought I'd post it here just in case. If not, please disregard.

O.k...I thought it was one we used to use a while back. Looked familiar for some reason.

It is an old logo.

It may be trademark infringement.

Release the hounds, Alan!

Only if it was trademarked and the tm hasn't expired.

Pretty sure the Mitsubishi logo is infringed

And if this seller is not the person who drew that picture and he doesn't have a release, it's infringement.

Same thing with the S3 logo.
