      Can you explain to me how auctioning something that they do not own is a mistake and not malice ? They knew they are being scummy doing that. Especially after the producer asked for it back AND they agreed to send it back. That is like robbing a bank and then saying “come on guys. was the heat of the moment. We didn’t think robbing a bank was THAT bad”

      Lying to someone and selling someone elses property is not a ''mistake". That is a crime.

          I’m working in a company with over 10000 employees. Nobody would ever “accidentally” sell a prototype from another company. Let alone lie to that company about sending it back.

        That’s easy. An item made its way to logistics, got mislabelled by someone who wasn’t concentrating or who didn’t know better, item landed in an auction. Apparently LMG needs a better system of internal communication or more micro managing from someone in marketing or communications for handling incoming and outcoming items.

        An easy example would be if you forgot a personal book at the library, a librarian mistook it for donation, and then your book becomes catalogued. It doesn’t have to be malicious.

          Okay yes by accident the item could land with items to be auctioned off unintentionally. How could it have been there though ? LTT literally told the guys that they send the piece back and that there would be a tracking link soon. Things don’t add up.

          So item was accidentally gone and then they tried to lie to the owner of the item by telling them it is on its way back ? Sounds like cheap excuses from LTT for fucking up on a gigantic scale.

                  The one where LTT told the manufacturer of the waterblock prototype that they are sending the item back and that they would have a tracking link soon when in reality nobody was actually sending that prototype back.

            If they had a history of malice then it would make sense to assume it was on purpose instead of being a major screw up.
