How do you feel about VW owners shafting VW on buyback?

Apparently some VW owners are stripping parts off their cars to sell on the side to make a profit - prior to bringing the vehicles to the dealer for the buyback (as a result of that fraud from VW).

The judge that wrote the order mandating VW do the buyback is considering amending his order to prevent this. His original order just said the vehicles had to be brought in, 'still operable'.

Is this just smart acting from consumers, taking advantage of how the order is written (and let's face it, corporations do this all the time, so does the govt), or is it violating the order?

Don't strip down your VW prior to buyback, warning from judge
