Bricks and Minifigs controversy
 
So a guy signed a contract with a lego shop to where they would help him sell his dying dad's $200,000 Starwars Lego collection and the shop would get a part of the money. The shop owners had to leave the country for a surgery and they were booted out by the company itself called Bricks and Minifigs. The new owners refused to acknowledge that the $200,000 collection was even in their possession and kept giving the guy the runaround for I think like 2 years. So this youtuber named recklessben decided to fight for this guy to get his collection back or get the money he deserved. This has turned into one of the craziest sh1tstorms that the internet has ever seen. From the CEO himself not taking responsibility to a whole corrupt Mormon police force helping the new shop owners, things have gotten quite crazy. Ben has done everything by the books and has documented everything along the way. It is a clear-cut case, but the system is not making things easy. This has become quite a fascinating story. Maybe some cool person can link the youtube footage onto here. Right now Ben is hiding in Mexico and tons of lawyers are saying they are willing to take the case. It seems like the whole company is losing millions in sales due to this greedy CEO and company refusing to take any responsibility. The people are fighting back by no longer shopping there. I don't know anything about Legos or this franchise, but this story of the little guy fighting the corporate giant is inspirational.
