Another view might be that the seller would receive emotional income by no 
longer having to agonize over delays, and relief that his/her deposit monies
had been recovered, thus no premium charges might apply.

Even if this market opened up, there might be a small number of orderers who 
would rather complain than either wait or dispose of their position...and they 
may receive emotional income from that stance.
