tl;dr for any sane people that don't want to watch feature length youtube videos:
>Guy has a shitton of classic star wars lego, over $200K worth. Has a franchise B&M store stock the collection for him on consignment.
>B&M store owner sells his franchise store to a new owner.
>The new owner goes "lol your consignment deal wasn't with me", just keeps the lego
>lego owner goes to cops, cops don't give a shit and tells him it's a civil court matter
>lego owner calls B&M corporate, they don't give a shit and say it's a franchise matter
>with the help of some youtuber, lego owner files a lawsuit
>the new B&M franchise store owner just straight-up does not respond to or show up for the lawsuit, making him automatically lose it
>decides to close the store (and keep the stolen lego)

I really really wish karma was a thing because fuckers like the new store owner guy should die in a burning fire or from an extremely pestilent form of cancer. Reading about this makes me irrationally angry.

>>11795617
No, that's rational anger.

>>11795615
>>B&M store owner sells his franchise store to a new owner.
>>The new owner goes "lol your consignment deal wasn't with me", just keeps the lego
Wouldn't the original B&M store owner be responsible for the consignment still? It sounds like they are the ones who handed the merchandise to the new owner without taking responsibility for the items.

>>11795617
still waiting for the conclusion, part 2 had evidence that the mormon police force violated their rights. these guys are gonna get raped in court

>>11796100
It shows security footage in the video that she asked about it and the guy was like don't worry lol it's fine we'll take care of it you can't take it :^)

What I really want to know is why exactly they just seemed to come out of nowhere and terminate her franchise and take over it... like that seems to just come out of nowhere and is glossed over in the video.

>>11796310
There is a lot that makes absolutely no sense in the video. Even if they terminate her franchise, unless she was a stupid fuck who also signed a commercial lease with B&M or her franchise forced her to take a building they had leased, that entire set of circumstances makes absolutely no sense. Even if Utah is a half-ass backwards hell-hole, and it is, there's no reason for the police to take anyone's side unless they are being paid off, so there's also questions there.

The $10K credit card payments, the lack of inventory, the inventory, this is the kind of shit any decent local TV station or a public radio station associated with BYU or University of Utah would have taken on and gotten results from without needing this dude to film himself half naked making time lapse of what some white boy nerd things are thirst traps of him making cheap ramen and pasta. If this was a hospital trying to bilk an old grandpa out of $200K in unexpected surgical bills, a good public radio station or local newspaper reporter would have written up some stories and done a decent, actual investigation and gotten a solution with a lot less bullshit and certainly without a patreon.

>>11796404
I believe the store is in Oregon, but the parent company (or atleast just those higher up guys) live in Utah

But yes there is a lot of missing information which doesn't make any sense.

The narrative as I interpret from the video is basically that the B&M company (like the actual head office/top of the food chain) really really really wanted to steal (up to) $200k worth of vintage Star Wars Lego, and did so by forcing a franchise owner out somehow, and then have gone to cartoonishly villainous lengths to keep it... Like why does a company worth $100m want to risk so much just to steal (up to)$200k worth of stock?

The company released a statement (very boilerplate/fluff)
https://bricksandminifigs.com/blog/blog/2026/05/21/salem-oregon-bricks-and-minifigs-store-situation/
And it does just kinda say 'yeah we have his shit, but they weren't suppose to be selling on consignment so *shrug* it's ours now'
Like, WHY are they keeping it then? Why not just give it back? Why do they want this fraction of their company value in inventory so, so much?

>>11796425
>hey we don't like elderly abuse, that isnt okay
>...but if there was a consignment, that wasnt allowed per corperate policy
>so be fair to us, okay bye bye
???
What a wierd response and situation. Also there was recently a video where one store 'accidentally' takes a super, super rare minifigure and calls if 'fake' anyways. All this tells me is I am glad I didn't decide to sell any of my Lego stuff to the local store near me.
>$100m
How is that company worth $100m?!?!

>>11796470
Same way any company is worth $100m or more.

Thievery.

>>11795615
Man this is bullshit.

>>11796425
>>11796470
My guess is the company is probably leveraged to the tits (i.e. they have a lot of debt) and so $200k of easily-sellable merchandise is actually a lot to them.

Watched part 2.
This guy has fucked with Scientology before and they apparently didn't have anywhere near the influence of the Mormon church, which is trying to get him arrested now.

>>11795391
Apparently part 3 is up on the patreon as well, would appreciate if you could find that.

>>11796552
It's not, that's just included at the end for when it's made public on youtube

>>11796553
Ah damn, thats a shame. Im enthralled personally. Never seen his videos before but Im going to have to see more, hes an excellent storyteller, and is on some Bugs Bunny shit which I appreciate it.

>>11796100
Legally it was probably on consignment with B&M as a business entity, not the original owner. So when the franchise changed hands the consignment deal went with it.

>>11796404
>Even if Utah is a half-ass backwards hell-hole, and it is, there's no reason for the police to take anyone's side unless they are being paid off, so there's also questions there.
The store was in Oregon and it's not clear why the police in Oregon took their side.
But B&M corporate is in Utah, and is seemingly in the same town as the two franchisees that took over the store in Oregon after the consignment. And they are all wealthy Mormons. And Mormons donate a lot of money to the Mormon church - they are technically required to tithe 10% of their annual income, and I'm sure the rich ones give more to show off. And all the cops in this town are also Mormon.
So it's the Mormon church.

>>11796425

Ben responds to the response from B&M

>>11796571
All fair points, there were places where i was skimming the video because dude was clearly just padding crap.

>>11796564
If it is a franchise store, correct. Which explains why all those attempts to borrow against a credit card and then buy the stuff that was on consignment worked/would work, unless the store did something like decline or cancel the sale.

>>11796564
>>11796683
The fucked thing is that the original franchisee was honouring the deal, but then the guys who own the company kicked out the owner of that particular store and brought their own person in, specifically to fuck up the deal.

>>11795615
Thanks for the summary.
Now I wish I read this before going to the gym and not after. I’m all fired up!

>>11794729
Never been in a b&m but they seem like the personification of afol. Would be glad to see the whole company chapter 11

Some youtube lawyer guy reacts
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14ktgvoH4Mc

Also interesting that B&M were getting a 35% cut for the consignment, so really Brian would have made $130k from all his sets. So take away the ones which already sold, this entire thing, all this bad press and destruction of reputation was only for like $100k. Like what the fuck were they thinking?

>>11795615
>tl;dr for any sane people that don't want to watch feature length youtube videos:

>>11798371
Nta but some of us have a life. I was just watching the lawyer talking video. It's over 30 mins long. 10 minutes in I skipped ahead because there is no resolution. It's just a guy talking about law, giving his opinion, repeating things they have already happened. I don't have time for that shit.

>>11798402
git gud

>>11795615
>stock the collection for him on consignment.
Why

>>11798365
people do shit like this over a few hundred dollars

>>11798436
Because he wanted to sell it but wasn't confident in his ability to get full price on the secondary market.

>>11798468
True, but corporations with 9-figure market caps usually don't.
My theory is that they're drowning in debt and any revenue helps.

>>11798174
>but then the guys who own the company kicked out the owner of that particular store and brought their own person in, specifically to fuck up the deal.
This is the key detail that demonstrates it was an intentional action, to steal the property.

>>11798365
>Like what the fuck were they thinking?
They would do it for $1...
Or for a single fucking penny.
They don't think, they only feel. That feeling they have inside them is only emptiness. A black fucking hole gravity well that absorbs all light and matter into it and still it hungers. They're just monsters.

I mean that fucking CEO who outright lied on video "Don't know what you're talking about" and then the fucking social media posts moments later. They don't even have a brain in their fucking head, they're using the corruption within the system to protect them.
They never consider the possibility that someone WILL go outside the "legal" system to set things right. Frankly, i would cut through the bullshit and use iron to get back the plastic. Fuck em. You make the legal process impossible, you make the illegal process a requirement.

>>11795391

It was messed up the guy on the phone was cussing him out and calling him a liar. It is like an elementary school bully going on a temper tantrum. Probably was a bully and liar most their life, raised that way, got their way most the time, etc.
Watching police cam videos is eye-opening. It is like watching adult toddlers and genuinely goofy comic book villains trying to get their way.

>>11799232
I think he's probably a narcissist who isn't used to not getting his way. His whole tactic is to insult and belittle people who get in his way, in the hopes that it will make them second-guess themselves.

So, can anybody reccomend some site which does custom paint colors? or something that could help me get 3d printed plastic in earth orange (Aka ron's hair) for bionicle and technic parts? just curious

I see Charlie or Penguin0 or whatever the fuck his name is made 2 videos about it. I don't particularly care for or get the hype around the guy since all he does is watch a video and give his opinions on it, but he has a gorillian followers so it will bring more attention to it which is good.

The Lego Company should step in.

>>11799385
They can't really do anything though, can they?

part 2 blew me away, the mormon church is fucked. Literally in control of the police. This shit is wild as fuck

>>11798415
Not about gitting gud. I just don't care to waste my time on YouTube shit. I did learn from the lawyer guy that if you're gonna consign over $1000 to get that little $20 document just to cover your ass.

And he didn't just go into the new store and take his stuff back because...? This is not some drug dealer who's going to show up at your house and kill your family if you piss him off. If it's yours then walk in and carry it out. What are they gonna do, call the cops and tell them that you stole your own property?

Is the US justice system fucking stupid, or is this just another one of Ben's contrivances for the video? Why does an individual filing a case have to serve the papers to the other party? Should this not be tasked to the courts or cops? Also, how can you reject being served? Even ignoring the corrupt cops, I can just reject papers and unless they have video (or audio) proof that I rejected being served, they cannot proceed with the lawsuit? What the actual fuck?

>>11794729
I’m confused, I swear I saw this news like months ago? Almost like a year ago I swear.

>>11799392
The CIA too

>>11799596
Yes to the first question which also answers the rest. Hope this helps!

>>11799424
The store would press charges for taking their shit and the cops would probably arrest him.

>>11799598
Yeah I posted this here a few months ago and no one gave two shits then.

>>11799374
In what era was this not the case?

>>11799596
>Why does an individual filing a case have to serve the papers to the other party?
Because they have a right to know there are legal proceedings against them.
>Should this not be tasked to the courts or cops?
It's a civil matter so the taxpayer doesn't have to cover it. You can hire someone to do it for you, though. That's what the Asian woman in the car with Ben was for.
>Also, how can you reject being served?
My understanding is that you CAN'T reject being served, but the papers have to be physically delivered either to your person or to your house. In this case that was impossible due to police harassment.

If you can prove someone is avoiding being served, you can usually apply for an alternative means of serving them, like giving the papers to a family member. But you are expected to try to give it to them in person first.

>>11794729
I am more upset that it's just passing news just like everything else. Reddit will bitch and moan for 2 weeks, say they will never buy things from BAM again, then go right back to shopping after newest drama news drops. The evil company will get away with the inventory, legal action will be put on the guy who played shenanigans with the legal system to try and get it back, the laws will not change that allows them to pull a "just sue my bro", and the only reputation damage will be forgotten within the year to BAM.

Bad guys win, good guys lose, the American consumer keeps shoveling shit into their mouth.

I don't even like LEGO

>>11799805
The Gofundme has already raised $17k and the video that promotes it isn't even publicly available yet.

inb4 the sets were destroyed in some freak accident anyways

Its pretty greedy to outright steal sets you're getting 35% for that you didn't provide. It was already a free money glitch for the store and they advertised it heavily so it was a draw for more than just consignment sales.

But if you're letting someone take a 35% cut you should just sell your collection yourself, much easier to offer it up for 20% less and have buyers.

>>11799817
Yeah, I imagine he could have just researched the prices online and listed them all on ebay for 15-25% discount.

You know what's cool?
That the BAM CEO,s Facebook - Ammon McNeff - is just publicly available, with a tonne of personal info and family

>>11799922
>he’s the one that gets it first and not the french pedophile
shame

They should absolutely get the sets, or more realistically at this point, their financial compensation. But at the same time, I can't believe boomers would actually trust a fucking STRIP MALL store with $200K on consignment. I'm used to strip mall stores disappearing overnight so I can't imagine feeling safe leaving that much property upfront at any of them.

Right?! Anyway,
>this guy walks in and slaps your Lego collection on the ass what the fuck you gonna do?

>>11799386
They can pull whatever deal they have with B&M that allows them to use Lego licensing and imagery in an official outlet store capacity. B&M only works because it's allowed by Lego themselves. Without Lego's backing, they lose any claim on officialism and authenticity.

>>11799598
Because it happened a long time ago, it's just taken this long to roll through all the legal processes and have things turn out even worse then expected. If it was just the theft of 200k worth of Lego, but the court forced the items returned and the original plaintiff got his stuff back, that'd be the end of it. But the fact that even after winning in court, the corporation behind B&M is still doing everything it can to be petty, vindictive and vile just escalates the entire situation even more.

>>11799805
I have one of these stores by me and I would frequently bring my 3y/o in to play for a bit before walking out with some $10 set or random mini-fig. I haven't gone back since I heard all this and I kind of don't want to knowing how bad this company is. But to make it worse, the owners of this location are actually nice people, my kid really likes hanging out in there and I do enjoy being surrounded by lego in one of the few remaining dedicated toy stores in my area.

In the end, this whole thing has nothing to do Lego as an item or a brand, and is just another example of toxic corporate behavior.

>>11799817
>>11799822
It's way less work to let a professional store, who has experience stocking, tracking and selling these items, to sell these kinds of items instead of having to do it entirely by yourself. It also helps ensure items are sold for the best price possible as a store will receive far less haggling then a private seller. Everything was going just fine until Corporate leadership stepped in and actively interfered with the agreed terms.

>>11799805
Reddit is already mass deleting anyone talking about it m8

The gofundme will recoup the material losses without a need for legal action.
At the same time the DA in Oregon is considering criminal charges as every individual sale of a stolen kit is a class B felony in Oregon.

Ok but what about every one else who doesn't have a big e celeb backing them up? Who got fed the same "sue me bro" bullshit from the mormon church? You think this is the first time they stole money like this? It doesn't solve the legal tax your average civilian simply can't afford.

>ummm okay but there's still other problems!!!
yeah, that shit sucks
maybe contact your local representative and ask what can be done about the scourge of mormonism

did the dad even want his collection to be sold or did the son just say fuck it. He should've went the fucking ebay route. Imagine trusting corporate.

>>11800033
Yes, it was always a plan to buy lego as an investment for the future so the grandkids had a college fund. Lego has always been a pretty rock steady item to invest in, and it was a more fun and interactive way to save for the future.

And they didn't trust corporate, they trusted a local store they had a relationship with. For a while it was going fine, but corporate stepped in of their own accord and took multiple illegal actions in doing so. Not only are the owners of the stolen lego sets suing, but the owners of the franchise location who unfairly had their contract terminated are suing.

>>11799999
He looks like a chairactchur of a villain who would tie the heroine to a railroad track in a 1930s western.

>>11799971
>you need qualified people to make a list
lol no. its lego, its not like you're trying to sell some niche bygone product. people have demand for lego and jump all over decently priced listings like a pack of jackals. especially with the short production window of sets, even garbage ones that didn't sell like the batcave or black panther bust end up being worth more.

>>11795617
>I really really wish karma was a thing because fuckers like the new store owner guy should die in a burning fire or from an extremely pestilent form of cancer
Unironically people used to be ventilated over shit like this. We need to bring back shaming culture. I want people who scam and cheat to be thrown into stocks and pelted with moldy fruit as warning like the ye olde days.

If this leaked email is real that was sent to all the franchisees, they too think this will be forgotten within 2-3 weeks just like me.

The thing is, your child isn't the target audience. 70-80% of BAMs sales are to adults. I could give live TV footage of the sweatshops and child tears drenching every piece of clothing from Amazon and the American consumer will still buy it bulk. Again, the world will cry fowl, say they will never buy again, bitch and moan, take a nap, then buy a Millennium Falcon.

And don't get me wrong, I would like nothing more than to see this jew of a CEO strung up by his faggy mustache, but it won't happen. I unironically think the Youtuber Troll is going to get into more trouble and potentially face jail time too.

>>11796425
It seems like everyone involved is completely retarded. The conspiracy filled stunt video makes me think the whole thing is fake and probably tanks any ability for them to be taken seriously.

But B&M's statement seems to imply they really did just steal it and think "lol that's the previous franchise owner's problem" is a legitimate argument.

I guess it kind of makes sense, since B&M is a franchise. Franchises are vaguely pyramidal and appeal to knuckle dragging savages.

The previous owners of the store made a video. they are taking BAM to court and will pay for Brians collection out of any settlement/judgement

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zedmOopRTm0

the franchisees should form a class action lawsuit against BAM corporate for actions that ruined their businesses reputations.

>>11794729
I've been wondering, is that obviously AI sign "real" (as in, someone paid to have it printed on canvas) or did the original photo have a different sign? The first idea only makes sense if ownership of the building was given to the family, but that seems dubious.

>My understanding is that you CAN'T reject being served, but the papers have to be physically delivered either to your person or to your house. In this case that was impossible due to police harassment.
I tried to serve a guy papers for small-claims court a few years ago. The court told me the first step was sending him the papers via certified mail that he would have to sign for. He just didn't collect it from his mailbox and after three "attempts" the post office sent it back to me and said they couldn't deliver it. The next step was me having to pay my county sheriff's office a $100 "fee" to get them to serve the papers, but the retarded woman who they sent out came to MY house trying to serve me the papers because she saw my name and address on them. She argued with me for a while before I got her to understand what she was doing. She tried to play it off as "just getting everything taken care of."

I guess I shouldn't be too surprised by this turn of events. AFOL as a "community" is rife with thieves, stands to reason that their businesses are much the same.
I miss when LEGO was a kids brand.

>>11794729
I just don't understand why they wouldn't just pay the dude or give them the lego back. I mean, it seems like a very small issue compared to the size of the corporation. Like did it turn out the collection is worth more than their annual revenue or something

>>11800884
I think they probably have a lot of debt and tight margins. I don't know what else would make $200k worth tanking their reputation for when their annual revenue is supposedly around $90 million.
Now at this point they're in so deep that they don't see a way out, so they're just gonna keep digging and hope they come out the other side. They hired a crisis management team and are telling franchisees that they're going to sue Ben and then all the outrage will blow over and it will be back to business as usual in just a few weeks. At this point they seem to be actually delusional about how much power and influence they really have, considering how many easily-disproven lies they've gone on record telling. Like corporate not being involved (proven false) or consignment sales not being allowed (proven false), while for some reason admitting that they DO have the legos.

>>11800884
Pocketing the money and funnelling it to the mormon church. Probably not their first time.

>>11800892
Have you seen part 2? They have the police and judges on their side in their mormon base, if they can prosecute in their home territory they will win.

The owner of the company seems like the type of dumbass to have a good thing going then ruin it by embezzlement and going into debt but aggressively refuse to admit any wrongdoing. He’s also likely going to lose most profits from the legos now just trying to fight this in real life along with trying to fend off the unrelenting online autist warfare.

>>11800899
The felonies occurred in Oregon so it's just a matter of putting enough pressure on the local county DA to prosecute them.
Not an expert but this might also qualify as a RICO case, which would get the feds involved, and the feds will rape the Mormon cops. BAM already said they're talking to the feds which means the feds are looking into things.

>>11800884
The sets are likely long sold, and they likely plan on sweating out any individual with legal fees.

>>11800947
Each individual sale of a stolen set is a separate felony. We know they sold at least one, to a buyer that was hired by the owner's son to prove they still had the sets.
I hope they sold them all and shipped some across state lines and it turns into a federal RICO case.

The news about this doesn't do the videoes justice, genuinely feels like a movie with how many wacky hijinks he comes up with to go after them

>>11800967
He did similar shit to the ‘horror house’ McKamey Manor guy I believe, him and his friends going in undercover when the police wouldn’t investigate and eventually finding an angle with the fire marshal, very entertaining work. Haven’t seen it in a while but this guy is so fucking dogged with his hijinx he usually finds the perfect angle.

I watched the McKamey Manor series after learning of this guy, since I liked his style. I'm not interested in cult shit which all his other videos seem to be, so watched the Manor one, but after checking on the place in current year it doesn't really seem like anything happened, and it's still operating and the guy WAS hit with attempted murder/rape stuff but it all got dismissed so yeah, didn't really accomplish anything besides annoying the guy in his front yard.
The Lego stuff is way better.

According to BAM’s official statement yesterday, the previous owners weren’t making their payments and defaulted the store.

File: IMG_3651.jpg (161.3 KB)

>>11801746
I’m starting to wonder if the original owners might have stolen the collection. Because also according to BAM, the collection was kept off-site and Brian was aware of this. Corporate did not get access to this location when they repossessed the store. It seems the original owners were deep in debt and then leave the country right after losing the store? They probably sold the collection from the offsite location and then fled the country to try to avoid any consequence.
Corporate is still going about this in the wrong way though, they should have just paid Brian already, the bad PR from this is way worse than $100,000.

>>11801746
>>11801756
It seems like everyones blaming each other, its such a clusterfuck.
https://youtu.be/ee_3rWDfT5M
Thats still BAM's problem though, the way they have been handling everything is still disgusting and Brians family deserves to be made right in whatever way, either return of product or financially

>>11801746
>>11801756
fuck off pricks and minifags, give the guy his lego back

anyone who watched bens video can see with their eyes and hear with their ears that the new owner know he has the sets and refuses to give it back cause he's a cocksucker who thinks he's above the law

>>11801788
He IS above the law

The whole Mormon conspiracy around this shit is wild. Like this has gone well past the point of a bunch of toys and it starts to get into things like actual corruption, wrongful arrest suits, and alot of other complicated shit.

File: IMG_3654.jpg (205.9 KB)

>>11801788
They might have a small portion of the sets, BAM corporate said that they believe there’s $2,000-$5,000 worth of sets when they took over the store that they believe to be Brian’s.
The majority of the collection I believe was held off-site.
Josh on the phone said something about “opening that stupid cupboard” when getting the sets back, you wouldn’t be able to fit a whole collection in a cupboard… but this might align that they have a small portion of the collection.

>>11801801
Still doesn't really track with the fact that the previous owners are suing B&M and if they win, will pay Brian the $200K or whatever that he's owed with the proceedings. It doesn't make sense if they're willing to pay him to not give him the sets if they were the ones that had access to them. Why not just give him the sets back and keep the $200K from the settlement? Unless it's all to save face, but I kinda doubt it.

>>11801801
if it's just a small portion why didnt josh say so? why did they never have a good faith conversation about the set instead of trying to always deny, trespass, and hide behind expensive litigation? why did josh say he would return the set and then completely change his story later? why did he say ben can return to the store to apologize and then ben had the police called on him?

any retard can watch ben's videos and see that this company is filled with greasy slimy cucks who lie nonstop just to keep some old guys legos to themselves. the only people interested in this corpo pr slop are paid shills like you

>>11801794
That is most definitely true. B&M are just one of many companies who do this shit. They are just so shit and sloppy with their power tripping that they got this whole corruption ring exposed. This will become a hallmark internet happening that will live on. Once the unredacted police interactions are released all those cop and law channels will use and reupload videos about those clips for the rest of time.

This isn’t the first time they stole anything (allegedly) I’m making a joke is all. And another YouTube made a video about another location stealing his $1k minifigure.

>>11801829
Even then, what's the point of paying out? They're still ending up with the same amount of money at the end of the day in either situation.

>>11801812
They seemingly were in bad debt, they probably sold the sets to get the money to move out of the US to Spain. They probably thought they’d be safe from any consequences but now BAM is still suing them. Them paying Brian is absolutely to save face, they own a publishing company and write books, so they definitely would be impacted if it came out they stole them.

>>11801834
Then as others stated, why didn't B&M just say that instead of doing all this other nonsense? Seems like it would've been way easier to just lay the blame on the previous owners instead of changing their story three or four fucking times.

>>11801826
>And another YouTube made a video about another location stealing his $1k minifigure.
I saw this video and I do not believe they were trying to steal it. The guy immediately found it and handed it over when asked about it, and said it was fake. Not in a "that's fake, let me take care of it for you" way but in a "that's fake, I don't want to buy it" way.

>>11801837
>>11801840
I don’t think corporate had that much information originally, they knew of the consignment but probably not all the specifics. I think they’re trying to push blame on the original owners now that they have more information. The whole consignment deal just seems shady in general.

>>11801854
Ok Josh

>>11801854
Oh, they knew. We saw the CEO lying straight to Ben's face and saying there was never any consignment and the legos were never in the store.
There is no information suggesting that the consignment deal had any issues until corporate seized the store. We also know that corporate lied when they said consignment isn't allowed, because we've seen the actual contract and it says explicitly that consignment is allowed.

It's too funny that these corporate idiots are burning down their entire company over this.
You just know they've been doing this illegal shit for so long that they're used to never having consequences to their theft because most people can't challenge them in court.

Until this random fucking youtuber goober exposed all their lies in this entertaining video and now they're in too deep to stop. If they return the legos they're basically admitting all fault and their fucking ceo has already been caught in the video lying so they're all in now, praying that this scandal dies down before they lose god knows how much more money compared to the pennies they stole.

>>11801873
I know I've said it before but I really think this might qualify as a RICO case. If it does, the CEO is going away on racketeering charges because he was too greedy to write a check for $100k.

They even go to the store and identify the product and buy some back as proof that they are selling it. I don't care what the corporation "says" they have lied again and again to media/staff/official statements. Until they can PROVE IT non of the PR shit they say matters.

The woman who got "kicked out" seems suspicious as fuck too. The timing of this and how conveniently she had to leave the country after this does not seem normal

>>11796571
>it's not clear why the police in Oregon took their side
I am a cop. I don't think they took his side. I just don't think they wanted to deal with anything more than a trespassing. Potential fake lottery, broken contracts this is above their pay grade and a cop can do nothing here. The Utah stuff though that is fucked up.

>>11801910
>The timing of this and how conveniently she had to leave the country after this does not seem normal
the fuck are you talking about timing? she was already planning to leave, corporate came in and forced her out before she left formally. and then when she told them about the huge consignment the ceo said on the phone that theyll keep the consignment as profit for the new owner. its only "convenient timing" in your mind because you are watching everything unfold in hindsight. idiot.

I can't believe we are actually getting PR bots here now. The future is fucked

>>11801912
>I don't think they took his side. I just don't think they wanted to deal with anything more than a trespassing.
I might have agreed with you if it weren't for the part where the one cop is about to investigate when the other comes over, whispers something in his ear, and then it's "okay, you have to go or you'll be arrested." It's clear the Oregon cops aren't half as corrupt as the ones in Utah but it still seems like someone high up in the department is telling them not to get involved.

>>11801756
>I’m starting to wonder if the original owners might have stolen the collection
If this was the case Bricks and minifags would have said so already to deflect blame

>>11801913
>the fuck are you talking about timing? she was already planning to leave, corporate came in and forced her out before she left formally
Yes the moment she got a big lego deal. Did she tell the people who gave her the lego sets "hey by the way we plan on leaving the country soon and selling this location just FYI" I bet not. Retard

>>11801915
>I might have agreed with you
You don't have to. That's how it is. He probably whispered to him "ok we wasted enough time just end this so we can grab lunch". No one was arrested at the end even with how much they kept pushing against the cops, the cops just wanted to leave.

>>11801922
They were required by law to investigate the crime. They were about to investigate the crime. Then one whispers in the other's ear and they both act like they have no idea what's going on.
There is corruption somewhere in the chain of command.

Mormon moment, inb4 this is the reason why the entire damn religion gets destroyed and not something else like how some retarded foids trying to fight gamers utterly destroyed their entire ideology

>>11801924
>They were required by law to investigate the crime
No they aren't see Town of Castle Rock v. Gonzales (2005) and DeShaney v. Winnebago County (1989).

>>11801928
Ben showed them the lawbook that said they were required to investigate stealing from a lottery. That's why the cop was investigating until his buddy told him they weren't allowed to interfere.

>>11801931

If Ben was mistaken and they weren't obligated to investigate this particular crime (I'm not going to check the Oregon state code to be sure), then that still leaves open a few questions
>why were they investigating at first?
>why did they act like Ben was the criminal afterwards?
>why have they been consistently covering up this crime against a member of their community?
If you are an Oregon cop I'd like you to explain yourself, porky.

It's not a cops job to investigate everything you demand. He did the proper thing by suing him retard.

it was proven when they refused to release the prize from the lottery, which they had in their store but did not own
therefore they committed a felony by stealing from the lottery

So, if you go to your house and find your land lord has kicked you out and changed the locks randomly and all your shit is outside in a pile this is a civil matter.

If you go home and find the land lord has locked you out and is SELLING YOUR STUFF, this is NOT a civil matter it is criminal. Actually, its BOTH a civil and criminal matter.

You cant SELL something you do not own. If I sell you a gold nugget but I don't actually have that gold nugget to give you its a criminal crime not a civil crime.

Additionally, they did have proof to show the cop that this was happening. He had a document with the store that showed his inventory, a document that showed the contract, a video of his entire inventory before it went out to the store, he had a video of his product still in the store (showing the similarities and identifying marks), and a video that it was being sold without consent. The cops decided this was NOT proof enough before ben even showed up. I'm not sure what more proof you think he needs anon? God to come down and say that it indeed was his product i'm not sure.

He's not a cop. He may be trolling for (You)s, or a BAM employee.

Specifically, in Oregon, it's a class B felony to do this, carrying up to 10 years in prison.

Then why’d he try to keep it and why’d the guy get lowballed at every store? And why’d that video get taken down too?
BAM is scummy by nature. It’s like the GameStop of toys.

Apparently lego partnered with BAM a week before the original video came out. Lego should drop BAM ASAP.

>>11802053
>Then why’d he try to keep it
He didn't. He seemed confused when the guy asked if he had the figure, then he immediately checked his desk, found it, and handed it over without hesitation. As he handed it over he said it was fake. The guy asked him why it's fake, he explained why he thought it was fake, and then the guy asked "so you don't want to buy it?" and he said "no."
It was on the desk over by the computer, so I assume he was comparing it to images on the web to try and see if it was real and forgot to put it back in the tray.

I'd be more concerned about the guy who said "I think that's fake but I'll give you $50 for it just in case."

>>11802026
This is hard to watch, anytime Ethan tries to tell him how to run his channel just makes me cringe.
>YOU DON’T HAVE A LAWYER?

>>11802060
He said that because he got busted. He would have been more than happy to put it on sale with a price tag if he thought he could have. No one “accidentally” pockets minifigures.
You sound like you work or own a BAM.

>>11802065
Are we talking about the same video? He didn't pocket it. It was on his desk.
https://youtu.be/NzAPe5GNetQ?t=902
He gets asked if there was a gold C3PO, he checks, finds it almost immediately, and hands it over. Then he says "that's fake, by the way" and turns away with zero interest in the minifig. This is exactly how I would expect him to act if it was an honest mistake. It's not how I would expect him to act if he thought he had a chance at tricking a clueless rube into handing over a $1000 minifig for cheap.

>You sound like you work or own a BAM
I had never even heard of BAM until I saw Ben's video. I'm not going to dispute that they lowball people. I just don't think this guy was trying to steal the minifig.
For the record, I don't think you should take any high-value collectable to a brick-and-mortar reseller. It's no different from a pawn shop, they HAVE to lowball you to stay in business. Sell that shit yourself. If you must take it to a reseller, do your research first so you know what it's worth.

I'm on Ben and Brian's side for this, but the last two update videos they've done where they read emails hurt me. It's like they're genuinely struggling to read basic English. Modern education truly has failed the last few generations.

>>11802142
The whole-language approach has been devastating for literacy. It's fortunate that teachers are going back to phonics.

>>11802129
No no you don't understand, it's actually the old owners that stole the legos according to bam crisis shill i mean anon

>>11802166
The main problem is that all education is based on teaching what they can test for. The first couple years of education should teach the basic functions like reading, writing, and math, then the rest of mass education should be devoted to real world skills, housekeeping, house repair, car maintenance, accounting and paying bills, basic medical knowledge (like CPR, first aid). Shit like that. Then higher education should be for any specialised fields.

>>11802178
It's crazy to suggest people shouldn't be taught history or literature. You can't have a functioning democracy without an educated population. We barely have one now.

>>11802181
Civics! I knew I was forgetting one. History can be included in that to an extent, but honestly they "teach" history now, but it's literally all just remembering dates and names with a massive focus on WW2 and the American civil war, not actually learning history. They don't explain how historical events influences each other, or how they affect the modern day.

CEO really shouldve listened and taken the easy way out, I cant imagine how much reputational damage this is causing them. And they keep going by trying to screw over Ben but they don't understand that this shit is fucking crack for the public. People love this type of content and seeing the bad guys lose so they will not have a fun time with PR

>>11802142
Ben is a math major and university graduate he is no retard. Or he is autistic or something. You can't be a normal human and do what he does.

The part of his brain that can contemplate death is turned off or something. If you watch his other videos the things he will do even if no one is watching is absolute insanity.

What does that have to do with anything you ask? I truly believe you cant have one without the other. A person who would speak rationally and could easily read the letter would have noped the FUCk out of this whole situation the moment a cop told him to fuck off. He must be in some way retarded to do what he does in the first place.

>says they have a TRO (temporary restraining order) - Ben claims multiple lawyers have told him TROs are used mostly for violent gangsters and this is a huge abuse of that legal framework
>asked why he didn't just give Bryan $50k an NDA to solve the problem months ago - "the evidence that we have... and this is not the human side of this that I want to portray per se, because there is a human side to all of this, and we like, I'm gonna gonna... plead on behalf of our franchisees" - total deflection, changes topic to "think of the franchisees"
>"we feel we made the right attempts and that was not reciprocated"
>ben says something in chat and the guy reads out the restraining order - it says there was evidence shown to the court indicating that Ben, Bryan, and Crystal engaged in criminal conspiracy and racketeering (note: this would have been a one-sided thing, they only showed the court what they wanted the court to see, and it would be very easy to frame things that way through selective editing)
>he says Crystal may have already violated this court order by going on ACOB earlier
>"we are not trying to try this private matter on social media" (because they know they can only win by dragging it out in court)
>interviewer explains that the videos will definitely be reuploaded if the court forces them down - "that's true, but it stops mistruth and lies from being spread" (HE DOESN'T KNOW)
>Ben is being attacked on fucking RICO charges - all but confirming my suspicions that this qualifies as a RICO case, since every accusation is always a confession with people like this
>HE SAYS PEOPLE ARE BEING PAID TO HARASS BAM FRANCHISEES (the protestors are being paid no one could ever disagree with me for real!)
unbelievable how deep this guy's digging himself and his brother

>>11802234
>Ben is a math major and university graduate he is no retard.
That's something I neglected to mention. The guy is clearly intelligent, the fact that he navigates the contract stuff shows that he isn't stupid, but I just can't handle the stilted reading. I think zoomerspeak is just fundamentally fucking up how younger people talk. The fact that they all end every sentence with "bro" is really grating. I don't blame younger people for that though, I blame the "educators" and the companies that push the dumbing down of kids to make them more compliant consumers.

>COO gets asked about the agreement that clearly says consignment is permitted

I remember a time when we used to do something about these things… sigh.

the CEO just issued a public statement offering mediation with bryan's family

>>11802414
now he's pivoting to "think of the franchisees" again

>>11802421
he just said he understands people are only against his company because of the "one-sided narrative"

>>11802414
Where?

>>11802427
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dmR3Flk49k

Ben is watching and reacting to the CEO livestream right now.

https://www.youtube.com/live/NAh9eh3KjrU?si=MZtDKjuzfnaKUV_j

the CEO is consneeding in some respects but doubling down in others
he still thinks he can crawl his way out of the hole he's dug

>>11802437
What is he doubling down on?

>>11802434
Holy shit it has over 5x the views of the original channel. This entire PR stunt is just going to get overshadowed by Ben calling out every lie. How is a multi million dollar corporation fumbling this hard and losing to a single content creator

>>11802439
he says ben has committed multiple crimes against his employees, and he refuses to take responsibility for this whole thing blowing up, basically sayingit's all ben and bryan's fault

>>11802440
no one watching the interview on any channel is on this dude's side, ACOB's audience is sending in insulting superchats lmao

wait he just said that crystal abandoned her bird and said "it's your problem now" when she was told to get the bird while leaving

>>11802443
Bird? Like she had a pet bird at the store?

>>11802414
He had Ben arrested last time they showed up. It’s another trick.

>>11802445
she has been saying that they stole her parakeet that was in the store, because they kicked her out so suddenly
he says that someone told her "don't forget the bird" and she said "it's your problem now" and they gave it to a no-kill shelter
if this is true it should be in the security footage

they asked the CEO if ben could come on the show and he said no lmao
ben asked, why did you guys say you didn't know about the consignment if we have footage of a corporate employee saying they would take over the consignment?
and he says "that was a low level employee, it wasn't a legal agreement, we didn't know there was a consignment deal"

The interviewer asked,
>if you could go back in time a month ago and make this go away for 60 grand, would you?
and the CEO says
>i think the fair question is... would you do what's right and honest? and that's the thing that i'm always gonna do
and then claims they've been trying for months to resolve this fairly and the mansell family just keeps ignoring them and not giving them the list of inventory

Is the CEO soiling his secret underwear yet?

How hard is it not to be a fucking thieving hoarder?

>>11802466
He already has, his entire corporation is going down the drain. And only one of Ben's video has publicly released. Every new video will be a nightmare for them, which is why he is trying to get ahead with this livestream by making up lies.

>>11802473
You just know his lawyer is blowing his phone up.
>YOU DUMB MOTHERFUCKER!!! GET OFF THE STREAM!!!! YOU ARE INCRIMINATING YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!

>>11802477
I don’t think this is the kind of person to keep a good lawyer, as soon as the lawyer disagrees with his “genius strategy” he get’s another.

The CEO says they're "just plastic bricks."

Does ceo know he will always lose in court of public opinion because the other side has already shown him and his cronies to be cartoonishly evil? The only way he can turn this around is to drop some big bombs that proves the other side is lying but that entire stream was a nothingburger. Just fueling free react videos and keeping his company in the news without even episode 2 dropping publicly. Do they not have a PR team for this?

they are definitely hoping for Bryan's mental going boom and saying fuck it.

I think it’s interesting that they said all of the small claims court cases were dismissed and not defaulted as Ben said. Is this actually true? All of that should be public.

My /pol/ brain can't overlook that a guy named (((Schneider))) is attacking a Christian adjacent religion.

I mean B&M are clearly in the wrong here and extremely corrupt and I agree with Ben, but just saying.

>>11802588
>Christian adjacent religion.
Mormons are not even remotely Christian.

>>11802503
They are Mormons, those retards have never been able to keep a pr team no matter who or what is running it.

They trespassed him permanently, if he tried that he would be arrested on the spot

German and he’s not a jew, if he was his channel would have been huge years ago. He puts a lot of effort in some of his videos..

You suck total ass at (((noticing))). There's also Swedish last names that have "Berg" in them. There's tons of Jews with Polish and Russian last names etc. If you were really about this shit you'd do the barest amount of research first before calling someone a Jew. Especially when someone has one of those borderline Germanic last names that can easily be Jewish or White. Took me 30 seconds on Google to find he used to be a boy scout at a Catholic church.

But also purely from his physiognomy alone it should have been obvious. He's totally ripped with a classically Aryan face. Then you look up what he did before YouTube and he's an ex professional Slackliner and X Games champion. Extreme sports are the least Jewish thing ever. Go back to /pol/ you need to spend a few hundred more hours of racially profiling people before you're ready to try doing it publicly.

Part 2 now up (fo free)
https://youtu.be/cxZPfj8AlmY

>>11802926
The only reason so many Jews have names like Schneider or Berg is because they knew it was likely for Jewish women to have kids by Gentile men more than jewish men were likely to have kids with gentile women. They made their religion aroudn the expectation of being cucked, the only culture that's matrilineal and not patriarchal.

This is the first of this series I've seen, this is pretty absurd.

>>11803011
Then you missed the pure cinema of part 1

Why would you watch part 2 without seeing part 1?

>>11802926
>>11802576
Jews are white. Sorry to break it to you.

Y'all should look up Landscape plus in Utah and review them accordingly based on that part 2 released.

>>11803047
Bwahahahaha!

Ok hebrown

Is part 3 up on patreon?

>>11803236
kiwi farms has it for free check there

>>11803047
everyone is labeled white, when the real white people stop existing the statistics will say they are still a majority of the world.

>>11799596
Yeah. The system actually doesn't work especially in small case situations.
You can win the case. But the other person can just keep avoiding you forever and never have to pay shit back

The only one this doesn't work with is if you lose to a Bank, then suddenly you have tons of Sheriffs at your door day one
In any other matter. You're shit out of luck.

>>11799596
youre just noticing?

>>11803252
the issue is if you make it too easy to sue someone, suddenly vexatious litigation will be through the roof
i don't know what the solution to this problem is but it probably involves reopening asylums

>>11799596
in one of his other video series it goes a step further, because the guy wont leave his house or open his door ben cant serve him BUT if he doesn't serve the dude in 7 days the case gets THROWN OUT. They KNOW he is in the apartment but the guy wont answer the door for anyone.

I hope his next videos are all about suing Utahs Police department

>>11794731
Give the old man his life savings, Josh

>>11803271
I think he said he was looking into it.

>>11803271
Ben has been in contact with legal eagle and h3h3 behind the scenes recruiting the strongest lawyers they can find. Also theres some lawyers who joined his patreon commenting that they want to help him aswell and asking Ben to work with them. This whole Mormon racket is fucked unless the corruption ties somehow goes all the way up to trump officials or people who are buddy buddy with him. Which in that case Ben will fail and will be targeted by the trump administration.

Mormons are like jews except they're white and live in the dessert.

>>11803325
mormons have strong connections that go up and up and up, the only actual question is will they be willing to go all in on this or cut them off for fucking up TOO hard.

>>11803333
I hope this whole mess snowballs to the point where Mitt Romney gets implicated.

>>11803329
>Mormons are like jews except they're exactly like jews

How long will it take for the Salem police force to bring RecklessBen and Bryan Mansell to custody and then claim that they "killed themselves because of stress"?

>>11803428
Unironically I think that's what they wanted to do when they tried that second no-bail warrant

>>11803449
hard agree, but I think they wanted it to happen with the first attempt too. If not killed then assaulted

>>11794729
Yeah I've never heard of bricks and minifigs I'm not a big Legos guy but the CEO comes off like a scumbag thief hiding behind lawyer speak
