Grave robber? No.

If you stop and think about it, those of us using vintage/antique tools are almost certainly using “a dead man’s” tools. I prefer to think that I am honoring the intent of the dearly departed by giving their old tools a home where they will be valued for their utility, instead of cast aside as the debris from someone’s life.

As for pricing, I am with poopiekat, if they put a price on it that is way below market I am not going to argue, I am going to pay it and walk away happy.
