3 x $3600 = $10,800
If they give you the TVs, they lose $9570.
But lets say they take the max fine, $10,000 + $5000. They then sell the TVs at normal price, They only lose $4200.
Anyway, good find on those TVs

Uh, with the fine they lose the 15,000 grand.
Then they can sell their TV's at normal price. They still lose 15 grand from fines. Yeah, they make money on the TV"s..but they had to pay for the TV's, pay the comission for the person selling it, etc etc. And you can't count the money they make from selling the TV's against their loss..that doesn't make any sense. That's like saying, oh I got 2000 dollar fine for speeding, but I sold the car for 8 thousand. So really I didn't lose any money. No..you lost 2,000 dollars that you would have had.
If they sell them at 410, well
3x410 = 1230
10,800 - 1230 = about 9500 dollars lost.
