Attack of the Hana Modz Clone. Let's wait together!

[pharzus090]

I suspect it is because the original company is either in another country without a trade agreement, of they didnt file for a TM

Any idea why they filed in California? I may be mistaken, but I thought Hana was in Illinois.

hana modz have filed for trademark protection. This is not a trivial matter and they have likely done this to be protected from people using their brand (trademark) to capitalize on their original idea. This is something that anyone who wants to do business in the US needs to acknowledge. There is no secret about this, you can look it up and read about it. At the same time, you have to defend this trademark or you will lose it (read up on trademarks to better understand why they exist). So hana modz have filed the trademark and they must enforce it if they want to keep it. I do not know whether or not they will do that, but they certainly have the right to do so. If you actually look this stuff up, you will find that changing the name from hana modz to Cana Modz won't protect you from litigation. If Hana Modz decides to sue, they will win against the vendors (I'm pretty sure about that). Obviously, the folks who purchased and received the mods won't be prosecuted, but the vendors could face significant damages.

This is what elev8vape site now says

"Cloupor has started shipping units to us. They will come in waves every 1-2 days. Today, 5/20/14 we received our first wave of clones. Once you place an order please allow at least 2 weeks to have your clone shipped to you."

look up illvapes address..

So everyone should have theirs in the next couple weeks If there are people ordering right now and will get theirs in 2 weeks.

Just hope 101 gets their green units in soon!

I ordered a blue no logo from illVapes Like others have said, I do not believe the lawsuit will effect any of our orders. Suits take time, and FINALLY, they have started coming in! Sucks for illvapes tho.

I have a Nemesis clone I bought from a US vendor. it has the logos on it same as the original.

How can mech mods be sold as clones with no problem but the Hana Modz can't?

It is up to the original owner of the trademark to ensure enforcement.

You are very correct in "suits take time". I very much so wish I ordered a more common color though. Orange from eciggity could very well cut it close. I recall Apples lawsuit against HTC and sammy took a good 3 months before they banned sales in the US but I still fear they will "expedite" this process since it has been done before.

Research the law firm and you will find your answer....

Has nothing to do with the law firm. You must file in the proper jurisdiction where the defendant resides, place of business, or may be found. The law firm has nothing to do with the jurisdiction and where to file. It's simply where illvapes does business...

And I wasn't even passive aggressive about it.....

Glad I ordered from 101!

THX.. I stand corrected....edited to say "look up illvapes address"....

You know what, personally, your tactics in this thread bothered me. I don't think it was a secret where I stood against yourself and others about some posts made... But that action really does deserve some appreciation from myself, well handled. And thank you for that.
*if that sounds at all sarcastic, it's not, really made me kind of think you might not be all bad

 

[mykereid]

Ahh, got it. Thanks.

look up illvapes address..

 

[CurlyxCracker]

Also wanted some things to come to light. IMHO, Cloupor had the means to assemble these. I did a bit of my own research, and found their business license application.

They had the means, doesn't mean they did or didn't but I don't understand why the would not....

 

[mykereid]

Since we've now turned to trademark law, why doesn't Hana file for an (emergency) injunction? Seems that way they would prevent shipment of clones until the case is heard.
