Easy to say from your armchair and not when the gestapo are at your door. If thugs appear at my door demanding a $50 item or else, yeah....I will probably just give it to them. See if I can claw it back later.
The Pinkerton employees on the other hand, were less cordial to the YouTuber. Cannon told Kotaku over email that they had threatened to get the county sheriff involved if he did not return the MtG cards. They cited statures with punishments such as a $200,000 fine and up to a decade of jail time.

- Firmwarrior 3y agoYeah, man, I wish that YouTuber had been you or an "Am I free to go?" style Libertarian I would have loved to see a video of him slamming the door in some Pinkertons' faces and possibly calling the actual cops

Close the door and call the police if they don't go away. I didn't intend it as a criticism but more of a "if you ever find yourself in a similar situation, you may want to consider!". The YTer had this dropped in his lap, he didn't have a chance to get advice or even consider it fully-- presumably strategic on the part of WotC. Any remotely reasonable response would be blameless in my eyes. (and if I were determined to find fault, clearly the fault would be answering the door in the first place! :) )
