Wait, how can Bricklink send C&D letters, unless it's actually owned by Lego? It's like Ebay sending C&D letters to Craigslist because someone happens to list something that's also solde there.

That's part of the craziness. Most small Lego trading sites are not wealthy enough to defend against this so they fold.

Imo they don't have a leg to stand on with 'their' numbering system because it is based on Lego mold numbers to begin with.
