it was bad enough when this seller was selling onesies twosies on eBay... but
200 copies? at 200 each? With no mention that you can just ring up S@H and get
it yourself? Not very community friendly.

Dear LEGO,

If you want us to respect the capacity constraints you placed on this set and
not try to circumvent them, please make sure that this seller is either an
authorised reseller of yours (and let us know that to avoid confusion) or
enforce the capacity controls against them as well.

200 copies is a bit much to stomach when you singled out Troy (who, by the way,
only buys stuff when it's on clearance or when you yourself are willing to sell
it to him in large quantities) the way you did in your announcement post. You're
fingering the wrong leech, er, person.

Figure out the delivery addresses he's using and shut him down, that would be my
advice.

While it's true that some feel it's the duty of sellers to separate suckers from
their money, I'd prefer you not enabling that.

Thanks.
