Wheel, the problem isn't that we or any other competitor couldn't do the same thing or even something better. The problem is that Overstock likely wouldn't get nailed for it because they are considered a quality result in Google's eyes already because of their brand and because they spend a ton of money with them on AdWords. Nobody knows if that type of bias really exists but if it does, that's what makes this an issue worth mentioning. Overstock is breaking Google's Quality Guidelines and Google may be allowing them to. In the end, Google may be the worst offender of the two.
