According to Hasbro, in a statement provided by Matt Wetherington (lawyer for Werner Wetherington, P.C.) on a Reddit thread<\/a>, no fault can be assigned for the oversold and canceled orders because the problem was beyond Hasbro\u2019s control. The company also blames eBay and a third party for the technical failure that took place.
