I ran into these people when I used to restore antique boats. Sometimes people will not sell no matter what. I know of a barn within an hour of my house. Its filled with over 55 antique boats, none restored. The collection even though rotted and tattered is priceless. I have tried now with 2 generations of family and I always am told the same story "we are going to restore them". No they are not, they are just going to sit forever. It drives us nuts, but if a person feels they are going to hang on to an item, we are not going to get it......period.
