Just because he didn't say that particular one was for sale, doesn't mean he never does.
And even if he doesn't, others bring up that they're for sale.
This had been going on for over 10 years. He just ignored our warnings, penalties, and discussions. He agreed to stop, and then didn't.

He's posted photos of his figurines ever since I've been on CB. I've never considered buying one or even knew they were

You serious Clark? He posts them here. Other users post about how awesome they are and how they bought them from him.

I never once saw him advertise, only share. I also don't see why simply telling

He's been told, and he agreed not to post them anymore.

Honest question: if it was such a huge deal, why wait 10 years?

Why hasn't BYU shut him down if he is violating licensing requirements?

I don't know. I'm not BYU.

I guess your definition of "allowing him to do it" is different from mine.

It doesn't matter that he only makes a little, the fact that he makes any money of them violates the team

Let's just say that there were warnings given, which were completely ignored.
