However, while they had secured the rights to move into the property, the planned building had been sold to a new agent, and the costs and time to renovate the facility, along with the costs for ongoing storage, were beyond the funding that the organization could support.

As a result, in June 2021, the organization announced that they may have to sell off their excess machines to save costs on storage space unless they were able to get additional funding within a few weeks.
