Perhaps the wrong questions were asked. The funeral homes may be familiar with the products, but because they are sold thru distributors, they are unaware of the manufacturer. Wouldn't be the first time a retailer doesn't know who or even where the product is manufactured. Their main concerns are customer demand and costs.

Unfortunately, I do not find this surprising. What I do find unsettling, however, is that ETIM has products for sale on e-bay and not at major funeral homes in their own backyard.

Not good.

Found on e-bay:

e-bay may be an unusual entry place into the market for us old-school people, but it is a very valid market presence today. No one has complete control over where their product or logo is peddled. It seems rather shrewd to go where people might look for you rather than sit back with nose upturned to a way to "pull" your product through an old-school industry. JMO, though...

Pet products on Ebay...why does IHub allow these posters to stay??? This is NOT ADDING TO DISCUSSION.....not accurate, and misleading....in otherwords FUD. These boards are for facts.. not posts about whether pet products are the same as human products....everyone knows the difference in marketing...
