[QUOTE="Treebore, post: 4750620, member: 10177"] I agree, the doubt comes from the fact that their "facts" have been proven to be misleading. IE not factual at all, but loose interpretation. They have spent years cultivating the perception that they had 6 Million customers, which in turns creates the perception that they are selling millions of books, especially the core 3. So when your integrity is shown to be false, it calls your definition of everything into question, including print runs. Are they saying 3 print runs because they are actually on their third print run, or is their "perception" that since they will be on their third print run at some day in the future, they can loosely interpret that to mean they can then say its in the third printing. I agree that they shouldn't be lying, especially in court documents, but I have seen too many companies blatantly lie in court ever since ENRon for me to believe even things stated in court documents, especially since WOTC has clearly revealed that they have no problems creating false perceptions, for years. So yes, WOTC should mean what their words seem to mean, but now that I know they engage in deceptive practices, it calls their integrity into question at all levels. Lets just say I am now doubly glad I sold off my Hasbro stock when I did. [/QUOTE]
