They may well be sincere and not "guilty" of anything. I certainly would not accuse them of anything at this point. The issue, though, is one of trust vs. risk with one's money in their initial auction. Given the context, in my opinion they had a heavy burden of proof to allay our concerns. And to date, again in my opinion, they have not done so, and indeed to an extent they have fueled those concerns. We'll see how it plays out.
