I think if more companies actually did that, maybe those IP cases would work differently. This is actually great idea.

Newegg doesn't want to do this. They deliberately fight patent trolls and exhaust all avenues of appeal in an attempt to overturn bad patents. The fact that they lost in the trial court is a formality; they will win on appeal.

TigerDirect would keep selling there. This does nothing to stop the tide.
