Those situations are very frustrating. It's the same feeling as when I found a fairly clean late 40s RCA 10" console here in LA at an estate sale, and the executor's lawyer ordered that no old electronics be sold, touched, or moved since they "have cancer-causing agents", which could cause a lawsuit. I asked what they would do with the set, and the executor complained that the hazmat contractor was charging $6500.00 to remove the TV, an old fridge, and some paint from a shed. Greenies at their finest!!!! (And the lawyer's cronies must have made off with about as much of that estate as legally <or illegally> allowed).
