He invested too much into a machine that is nice, but not  all that  desirable and trying to recoup his loss

Compressor worked when it went into storage and got VERY cold.

And you can't take it out of storage and test it...why?

You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still dinner and  not a date

A shiny turd is still a turd! I agree that he put way too much into a machine that is not that desirable.

He's "older than the machine and knows its value". Well, he missed the age of the machine by about two decades.

Must be the same guy that has a Bevco Pepsi cooler on E-bay from the 40's. It has square corners so I would think it's from the 60's.

The blue clock on the left is worth 6k based on his reasoning.  I'm going to offer 5k for the clock...maybe he'll take me up!
