I can only find one post in the original thread saying this kind of suit should be acceptable.
Most of the original thread is a guy calling anyone who gets a huge bargain without telling the seller what they have and using their knowledge for the sellers gain a "huge piece of shit" and the resulting virtue signaling debate. There was not really any debate over anything remotely approaching either the mask case or this vase.
1 single person thought a suit was reasonable. I still do not get why we are bringing this up as if there is any legitimate debate whatsoever.
