I said it in the other thread too but I have a hard time believing it. To fake an Apple Watch is pretty tough to do and there really are no examples of it out on the open market. I’d even wager it would cost Republic more money to buy fakes than to get some sort of bulk deal from a company they’ve already bought several thousand iPads from. What do you think they did to buy them, go on eBay? I don’t believe it.

What do you expect? It’s company property. If you were in their shoes you would threaten the same. I don’t think they actually do that though because from a business POV it would cost more in legal fees than the value of the iPad.
It’s all about integrity though. Why keep something that isn’t yours?

I offered to purchase it. They declined that offer. So I asked what would happen if I kept it. They said they would come after me in a lawsuit. Needless to say, I sent it back with everything else the company wanted.
Far from shady. But being told "fly it and grieve it" and "you choose to commute" is so much more honorable.
