LG could seize PS3s already on consumer's homes

According to this article LG won a court order allowing it to seize new PlayStation 3s throughout the Netherlands. This order includes the ability to seize PS3s already in Dutch homes.

This is just wrong, what do we as consumers ever did to LG? Im not dutch or living in the Netherlands, but if this is allowed to happen, then it may aswell happen elsewhere, what do you think?

Good luck with that LG :roll:

I wonder if LG can bring over some thugs to beat the family occupying the house into submission with metal pipes.

Good luck with that LG :roll:

Wait, they're going to go to homes and sieze customers PS3s? :? Is that even legal? Will the customers get a refund?

I would fight them tooth and nail, as I MUST play Uncharted 3! :P...and Mortal Kombat, The Last Guardian and more lol. Doesn't matter for me though as I am not there.

LG: Hello homeowner. May I inspect your house to determine if you have a PS3?

Homeowner: No

ROFL I'd love to see them try and trespass private owners' homes just to seize their PS3s for 10 days.

Whoever wrote that forgot to put his thinking cap on.

Now I'm not familiar with the Netherlands laws or legal system, but I can't imagine this being legal. Even if it is, LG is alienating themselves from a lot of potential electronic customers by doing this. Obviously just a scare tactic since it won't benefit them in any way besides forcing Sony's hand and making them pay up.

Mo money mo problems sony :(

Its the Dualshock issue all over again

LG has the possibility of doing so, but it certainly doesn't mean she will. The only thing this does is ruin Sony's image, selling a product that could be taken from your hands, and make Sony lose even more money than what it already has with the PS3. Sucks for them.

Homeowner: No

LG: Well, I have a court order and must insist.

Homeowner: You should have showed me that before I shot you with this shotgun.

LG: Wha..? I did show you.

Homeowner: *Racks shotgun*

lol id like to see them try and take my ps3 away from me would nvr work in the US

Dutch gamers, I suggest you borrow a popular phrase from us Americans when the LG gestapo comes to your door:

From my cold, dead hands.

Thats crazy. Like to see them try though.

Good luck to LG, I hope they take sony to the cleaners for this real patent infringement (not fake 'ip' BS).

lg i am here to inspect your house for ps3s

me/home owner -your not coming in here

lg yes i am

me oh no your not i dont care what part the paralament is your not coming in here

lg i have a warrant

home owner -- give me my money i paid out front for all the products for ps3 then you can have it until then shove your warrant where the sun dont shine

forgot about the constitution thats what i would say if they did this in usa hahaha

I'm calling BS on this. So instead of drug raids, police are going to be doing PS3 raids? Yeah right.

Edit: Appears I was wrong. Wow. That's all I can say.

hide your wife, hide your ps3s, LG coming for you

LG's coming to take away our PS3s, Sony is in Trouble....the World is in Trouble.

Sony needs a Hero....We Need a Hero.....a Balla....someone who's not wearing a....neck tie......

Sony Needs.

Castle law says I can shoot them if they try to seize my stuff.

From my cold, dead hands

Yeah, no they can't, at least not mine...I'll never let them near it >: ( :evil:

I doubt they will go into homes and rip out peoples PS3 also LG's public image would be in the trash if they did thatASRCSR

[QUOTE="bleehum"] Yeah, that's not gonna happen.AncientDozer

It would be a public relation suicide.

The kotaku article used this line too, but nothing in the article suggested it.

I doubt this is true.
Consumers have less and less rights. But that's all fine in SW.
I will happily give them my PS3. If they want anything else here i will give it too. Want my money? Here have it. My underwear? Super mister corporation. I mean, what can i do?

And how do they know I have one. :P

Between Sony getting the names of every single person that even just watched the videos and LG doing this they have both lost their minds and are taking away people's rights while they do it.

I doubt the LG part is true though I want to wait for better sources to confirm this. Still true about Sony trampling on rights though.

*sharpens katana* come at me LG :twisted:

LG's just shot themselves in the foot if they think this is the way to go why not just man up and you and sony sit down at a table and sort this out and benefit everyone including your own image in the eyes of consumers and the customers themselves.

Altho if this is the EU were talking bout give MEP's enough money and they will do anything particularly useless organization i wish Britain wasnt a part of.

If it goes through they can try and take my PS3 but im within my rights to request a refund for the hardware and most likely the games.Day by day i loose faith in any form of current government in this goddamn world.VATS up to 20 percent and EU MEP's are claiming more expenses in a day than i make in a year part time its shockin.

If in some crazy world this actually happened, this would be my response to LG wanting my PS3:

Good luck getting into my flat; 3 security gates, my flat door, and then bedroom door :P

OVER MY DEAD BODY LG!!

(ps I dont live in the Netherlands)

I am really liking LG,go for it! make sony pay!Tessellation

only a fanboy would say something like this which is more than likely going to hurt everyone involved especially consumers if they get their way.Less choice on the market is a terrible thing to endorse unless you are being sarcastic but based on my memory of you i doubt this very much.
