According to Billet themselves, they heard nothing about compensation or payback until about 3 hours after the original GN video went live.. Which Billet hadnt even replied to before Linus made his post saying they've already made the deal on compensation.

So Linus's defense was he didn't sell it he auctioned it...

Are there any auctioneers here? Because famously I've never seen an auctioneer portrayed as saying 'Auctioned!' when someone's bid is accepted. For some weird reason I always remember them yelling 'Sold!'.

Auctions are a way to buy/sell, the phrase is "sold at auction", these are not mutually exclusive..
