Not really as the box is supplied to the person (hence not stolen) the user should return the box as per the civil contract.. So as mentioned in other threads the word stolen is incorrect.
VM can claim the boxes back (but instead just tend to claim back the boxes value) and could stop the auctions. Anyone though selling the box could be open to civil proceedings but I doubt criminal proceedings. VM I doubt will ever try to stop the auctions as the time/effort outway the recovery value for a non-working box.
Moot point though as the box won't work and those ignorant to buy the box will soon learn that VM is the only supplier..
