A Quick Note About Our 3D Prints (and AliExpress Sellers)

A Quick Note About Our 3D Prints (and AliExpress Sellers)

Next post Previous post

We recently discovered that some of our original product photos and designs were being used — without permission — by sellers on AliExpress. These listings are not connected to us in any way and are using our content to sell knockoff items.

At Necessary Design, we create almost everything in-house. A few of our items come from other amazing creators we support on Patreon, and we always say so in the listing. If there’s no credit, it’s our original work — plain and simple.

We’re taking steps to report the listings, but we also wanted to share this here to be fully transparent with you.

🔍 How to Know If a Listing Is Ours

We know things can get confusing when images are copied — here’s how to be sure you're seeing an actual Necessary Design listing:

We only sell through: necessarydesign.com and Etsy

🎨 Our original designs are made in-house — designed, printed, and photographed by us

🤝 Some designs are by other creators we support via Patreon — and we always credit them in the product description

🚫 If there’s no credit and it’s not on our page — it’s not us

If you’re ever unsure, feel free to reach out — we’re happy to confirm!
