First, I think Pantac products are great. That being said...

We started Phatom in 2005, we designed the logo, we marketed them.

They started to use our material to built Phantom products and tried to sold them to our distributors. Of course we cut our cooperation immediately, and started our own factory to market Pantac.

This makes me LOL.
Phantom, which ripped off Eagle, got ripped off by the factory ripping off Eagle, and created their own ripoffs to undermine the Phantom ripoffs...so Phantom rebrands their ripoffs as Pantac.
So essentially you ripped off Eagle, and then the factory you assembled to sell Eagle clones cloned your clones. Not to be outdone, Pantac has now expanded to rip off not just the big manufacturers, but the little guys like So-Tech, HSGI, and the niche guys like LBT. Hey, if ripping off one company works, why not steal all their designs? Heck, you don't even hide it...when your products are marketted with the ORIGINAL MANUFACTURER'S PRODUCT NAME under your product code and Pantac label.
Ah, capitalism.
Anyway....the quality is great and the price is right. Even if the product is less than original. As a gear DESIGNER and MANUFACTURER, I'm sure you can understand my frustration.
