Think they'll hit Classifieds: Tanks, Valves & Bands or craigslist or ebay or FB marketplace soon?

He's gonna have to get that money back.

If there is a disclosure that they can't be filled by a shop in the US - why not. He may be able to sell them for maybe 25% of that money to a compressor owner, a paintball enthusiast, or a metal sculptor 🤷‍♂️
 
Just swapped tanks for cash. No issues.
at least some honor left.

he might have actually been thinking he was in fact in the right and now understood the judgement against him so was willing to settle. he could have had that cheaper. how much was the hit on the filing fees?
 
Just $40.
well still. he could have saved him those. But given the fact that he showed and how he acted before that and after (paying you without issues) and knowing the German mentality, I'd not be surprised if in fact he was convinced that he was legally right. From am morale perspective still a ****** move, but it seems he thought it was legally solid. Germans have a trait to become very stubborn when we think we are right (or have a certain right) and that woudl explain the behaviour. I could even see his whole demenour change now actually knowing that this is also legally incorrect.

You are spot on on everything :)

The way he presented his arguments to the magistrate showed that he was convinced he did nothing legally wrong.

And his demeanor did change after the fact. When he picked up the tanks, he apologized and admitted that what he did was unethical. He did say "I would have won had I not made up the AZ story!" though, which confirms the stubbornness as well :)
 
So have you found any other interesting projects to keep you occupied and pay $2 a day for the next 7 months
 
Exactly!
