[@karlkiessling]

Chinese law has no real respect for copyright or patent laws. These laws are drafted and enacted in the West and although officially respected by Chinese judiciary proces in the real world they are not enforced unless high profile enough. Tldr it costs big time to try and get a Chinese court to help you!

[@Domarnett]

It says a lot about your character that you didn’t highlight their flaws more and you actually gave them a free review that wasn’t even terrible. They’ll never get a dime from any of your viewers, but that’s completely on them. 🎉😂🎉

[@miccorockstar1]

lol, i assume that a legal case is in order and Vevor will pay their dues.

[@owenrackham1]

As the son of the founder of OzWash Sluices, who also happens to build said sluices, it is sad seeing a foreign company ripping off hard working Aussies. Watching my dad go through revision after revision, improvement after improvement, lots of time spent developing a well constructed, locally made product, would hate to see a poor quality danger copy rip everyone off. Keep up the good work doing what you do best!

[@zorbakaput8537]

Copyright doesn't exist in the Asian land of stealing other people's stuff. Why do the work if you can as in this example steal it from somebody else.

[@cuban9splat]

Chris, that was an excellent response to them. Well-done Sir, and thank you.

[@kevdimo6459]

Great video Chris, if their sluice actually works, then why do they feel the need to use unauthorised video for their commercials. By the looks of the quality of their build it’s because they are lazy. The lovely thing about this video is that you’ve shown the gold prospecting world, don’t f@:k around with Aussies! 👍🏼👍🏼

Good video Chris and Merry Christmas to you and Fern. And to Vevor, you deserve to get Coal in your stocking, and just black sand in your ripoff sluice.

[@geradkavanagh8240]

Black sand is often tin ore. At nearly $29,000 a tonne for tin. Sending black sand to Vevor would probably be counterintuitive.

my vevor sluice, bigger than the one you got slightly...was 60 bucks US. I have yet to find a cheaper sluice...yep, its sharp and cheaply made, but it was still less than half the price of the next cheapest option I could find at the time. Thanks for the great video!

Vevor is the example of how to not run a company. If they are thieves they would surely lie to you also.

[@mary-ruthflores4107]

Found them, left complaint! I encourage everyone to do so. Also hide your email so they can’t dump on you, that something an unethical company would do

[@digitalmusic4803]

Here is a script to use for those in a hurry to copypaste to company review sites: Vevor stole content from Vo-Gus Prospecting on KZbin that had a rival company sluce being used, and claimed that is their Vevor sluce. They removed the video on demand from the content owner, only to re-upload it the next day. The product was subsequently tested by Vo-Gus Prospecting and found it has very sharp edges in many places, a total catastrophe for a sluce.

[@howardmoss2374]

Forking brilliant Chris....stay petty.!

What a crap thing to do to you! Sorry to see that happen to you. It happens to a lot of KZbinrs. You should run another test using your sluice to catch what passes through theirs first, just to see what theirs is missing.

[@tjzambonischwartz]

Sue them into oblivion.

[@user-friendlyhuman]

Yesss!!! I want Chris to gain compensation and utilze the funds to buy a gold mine and have patreon members come and work on his property, and Chris takes a % cut but we get to keep the rest. If 100+ of us blokes and sheelas get together, we could really make a difference and enjoy the community, self-sufficiency, etc.. matter of fact, we could start a new small town or just reinforce an existing small town with our presence and capital.

[@alexanderpowell1528]

Yeah, I won't be buying Vevor again. I recently purchased an electric grain classifier from them but that is a dirty move by them on you. Hey, come to think of it, you could probably classify dry dirt using that system. I bought like 4 different sized filters- 6, 8, 12, 60 and it works on grain.
