Something about this whole saga makes me think that both the underlying problem and the game of legal chicken could have been avoided if Global Archery just asked nicely in the first place. Unless of course it was hoping to drive the guy out of business, in which case, it's awesome that Newegg is helping out, because the courts should not be a tool for running fair competitors out of business.
