Ebay's response: "This is unprecedented!"; not "This is a lie!", or "We're not guilty!".
If your best response is that the EPA hasn't prosecuted you this large before, then you must be super guilty.
I hope the case results in the list of people who bought these things being forwarded to their states' authorities.
Lol no state has extra resources to do anything. Murica!
And where these are most popular, the police would choose not to do anything anyway.
