Are these licensed shirts?

[Bikerbettyboop]

This seller on eBay has about 20 different Betty Boop shirts and I'm not sure if they are licensed? Could someone check it out please. Thank you,

These are genuine images, but we don't know whether the seller is licenced to use them. If they're screen printed, probably not. If the garments are made from material already purchased with the Betty Boop motif, then the t-shirts may be OK.

The images seem to be sharp and of good quality. Pirated items usually look cheap and shoddy.

I'll send the usual query to the seller.

I asked the seller if they were licensed and this is the reply I got:

"Of course you Silly"

So now I'd like to find out who the manufacturer is so that I can add these shirts to my website.

I'm not sure if "of course you Silly" fills me with confidence.

I asked if the pictures bore a logo saying they were licenced by King Features or the Hearst Corporation. No reply so far.

I suspect that they aren't legal......

[The Moocher]

You're probably right. I got no reply.

I think the seller is rude.

I hate coming across rude sellers!!

You and me both! I also detest the ones that are selling items illegally and yet they cop an attitude with me when I question them about it.
