		<description><![CDATA[Omg relax, i work at Diva, i&#039;m a store manager in Victoria, upon finding out these items were copied all stores were informed to immediatly take the items down and put away/send back to Head Office, any that are still instore, shouldn&#039;t be and if they are it&#039;s the disorgnised store manager&#039;s fault. No one bought half the stuff anyway, they went on sale because they were so unpopular.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s great news he called you. See, the designers are a section of the company. And with a company this large, you can not keep track of everyone. Some designer or two probably got lazy and stole the designs to save themselves some effort and got away with it until now.
The CEO probably contacted you, knowing how bad it looks for his company. I would say a few designers are losing their jobs and may even be charged under company rules or some sort of thing (Some companies have a part of their contract stating what must and must not be done, and the penalties for breaching the contract.)

I would suggest contacting the CEO again, and asking what steps have been/are being taken to resolve this inside the company. It shows you still are interested and are hoping for a more peaceful resolution. If word gets out that it was a designer who got lazy and it was brought to their attention by consumers, and the person in question was fired, both sides get good publicity. It shows that independant artists won&#039;t take theft, and that the companies selling the stolen art won&#039;t take theft lightly either.

Basically, it&#039;s a way the big companies make themselves look good getting out of a sticky mess :P]]></description>
