Default Can't buy them all, choosing between ASW19 vs LS1 vs PIK20

Yes but I have found that some sellers think the price someone should pay is equal to "how much money they put in their [beloved] ship". While it's a good thing to know they loved their glider and probably took great care of it, hoping to recover 100% of the money you put in it is plain naive and ignoring depreciation and the fact that better gliders are now available at the price they paid for their ship 5 or 7 years ago. And the ship they bought 5 years ago is now 5 years older, probably has new ADs to comply with, some cables to change, a higher probability for some unexpected maintenance, etc... Also winter is coming, someone needs to pay for storage for a few months, at least here out East :-)
