Maybe their tactic is to frustrate and and pi$$ off retail so much that people sell in disgust and exasperation while they swoop in, buy it all at bargain basement prices and make a bundle when this takes off. Who knows, really. I am sticking with fundamentals of this company, gold in the ground and more to come. I'd be selling at a hefty loss now so I shall sit and wait and try not to be sidetracked by the shenanigans. Interesting to speculate about it though...
