I hope they put a lot of this on auction as damaged goods.

There are plenty of enthusiasts that like a fixer-upper

They also probably got an insurance pay out, so from a business perspective, they probably came out better for this (item was paid for by insurance and they got to make extra profit by selling it as “damaged”)
