I guess it comes down to trust of your retailer. If Dave tells me he has something nice, I trust him and buy it. If any other retailer out there says they have something of Tyree/ORA/LE lineage... it is up to the customer to question the legality of such a claim and weigh the pros and cons. I don't see why a retailer would hide lineage information as that is part of what you're buying. Try and sell a Tyree Watermelon Chalice frag in the States and tell someone its Tyree and then tell them you don't have to prove the lineage to them when they ask for it, and that they should just trust you. See how that goes.

Everyone knows there are illegal corals floating around, and many people have them in their tanks. Unfortunately that doesn't make it legal.
