Default Buying glider from an estate - maintenance logs not available

No particular glider in mind. Though I know of several retired pilots that are still holding onto their gliders. I tried to make an offer on one of them, but the owner was not ready to consider selling.

I'd heard that log books are sometimes accidentally lost when the family 'cleans out the house'.

The logbooks for my glider are in an envelop labeled "Please do not throw out. These logbooks will be needed to sell my glider'.
