I was one of the people who commented, but I was careful not to accuse you of anything. I said if you knew that the value of even the damaged chips was over $200 each, then the poster had a point. I believe you had no idea that any would sell for that range. I also agree that the whole thing should never have made it to the board without extensive communication between you first.

I am sorry if I personally caused you any unpleasantness.
