My aunt recently passed away. Since before she was even sick, due to a lack of space at their house, I have been babysitting a couple pieces of antique furniture that she inherited from her aunt. Her husband approached me yesterday and told me to "make me an offer, whatever you think is fair" to be able to keep them. I like the pieces, they are from my family, and my mother and I don't think we should have to pay for them. But, by default, they are now technically his. I would be willing to give them up to another member of the family if they were interested, but I suspect that if I don't buy them, he will sell them on ebay or to a dealer or something.
Is it right that I should have to pay to keep a family heirloom?
