If I’d’ve known about the auction I’d’ve bid a nickel.

I don’t know all the details of their story, but it does appear that at least at first, they attempted to represent themselves as having standing to sue for damages when one of their clients’ copyrights was allegedly violated, and yet were never in a position to sell licenses to (or use) any of the related works. In French there has long been a phrase for this sort of thing, IIRC “vendre canard a moiete” i.e. half-sell a duck, from which we get one modern term for a lie, canard. They never actually held a copyright.
Anyhow Wronghaven is now a well and truly dead duck.

Righthaven LLC are licking their wounds after no one bid for Righthaven copyrights in an eBay auction that ended Saturday.
Oh Noes...that's got to stink.....

Next auction should be for the office building and everything inside that isn’t a family photo. That would hurt the Righthaven idiots.

I was one of the victims.
I’ll reserve my comments.

I’m delighted they are this badly damaged, but I am personally angered they hurt us.
