Corporate greedmonsters REVOLVE have come for us again, this time by enlisting the help of Instagram. They've "permanently disabled" our @revolve_merc account.

I filed an appeal, but they didn't provide a timeline and didn't even provide a response. Will they ever respond? We don't know, and that's the scary part.

We worked so hard for the last 7 years to build our followers up to more than 10,700 and the idea of starting over has me feeling really sad and angry.

We are one store, tucked in a tiny mountain town of ~100,000 people. Why they feel the need to harm our business simply because we share a name is beyond me.

Helene hurt us bad. This will also hurt us hard.

We're marinating on all of it right now, and will keep you informed along the way. Most importantly, we just don't want to lose you. So please please help us by tagging people who like us and sharing so that as many of our friends as possible see this.

We aren't leaving. Corporate bullies are a cancer to society. Please remember this experience before opting to shop online -- corporations don't care about people, nor do they care about communities.

We're a grassroots shop for the people.
