Here in one subject controversy broke on the topic "Does the cost of restoration of things and whether you want to do it, if the thing is in poor condition?

please comment on these things matter with the arguments and vote.

in the voting it comes to works of art that are in poor condition

Personally, I think that raises. Let me explain why: when the work is in poor condition (crumbling or chipping paint, badly stretched canvas, went caps, torn cardboard, etc.), its cost is lower because they do not see it in full dignity, the buyer there is some doubt as this work, its past and perhaps its future state (does not change whether its appearance due to poor condition). It's like in real life: if the thing with marriage, then it should cost less.
I agree that the restorer restorer strife, but to find a normal, after consultation with knowledgeable people, it is possible.
Outcome: grammotno renovated thing looks better and more attractive than the tattered, and, accordingly, can be sold more expensive. There are cases where restoration is contraindicated for the continued relevance of the work, but it is more the exception than the rule.
