So I was informed this morning that Isanmate, the 3d filament company is using my Easter bunny egg model in their Amazon listing, without my permission, of course…what to do?
allow them to use it, but ask them to attribute you and link your MW profile to boost more credits

If I can get in touch with them…
Honesty, if you tell them to remove it…they probably will just use a different model.
I would leave it alone & maybe post in the User Questions Section on where to find your model…JMO.

Oh I found it on mobile, I had to click on the shop name somewhere in the middle of the product page, not the one at the very top.

You should absolutely ask them to mention you or even feature your model in the detail pages

I feel so star-struck now! 
I know someone that has their model in a spool product photo, haha.
Glad ya’ll worked it out. I always wonder how those things go, and I’d hope any manufacture should be happy to give credit and all that to those that make the excellent models.

I believe thats are not the manufacturers. They pay some marketing company for advertisments. And thees companies need some models. I often saw similar or identical images for filaments of different manufacturers. I wondered if this is the same manufacturer or the marketing company.
Today I saw an advertisment of geeetech. With a model I had seen at thingiverse. I doubt that they asked the designer.
best get designing for other calendar dates.

I was asked by printer company if they could build one of my models and use it at shows and some web pages. All my models have a CC-attribution-no commercial license. They said that they would give me recognition and that they would not sell it, but reference a site where it was posted, like Thingiverse. I told them OK, as long as they didn’t make a profit from it (other than the sales of the products that they advertise with it) and they let me know where the used it. We’ll see what happens.

I had the same situation today I was asked (maybe from the same company) whether they can print my model, make pictures and put it next to one of their printers on all of their websites. they also want to exhibit it somewhere. I feel pretty honored as they also want to link me in the comments / videos. I’m exited where this goes…

Great news.

So far my experience has been good. I get enough credits to keep me in filament for the rest of my life. Hopefully your experience will be good too.
I hope so as well …also makerworld asked me whether they can print it, take photos and use them on their site
