Arm rests

Why do I see so many posts in the classifieds looking/selling arm rests? Even walking thru the bone yards here which is slim pickings (southern ON) the arm rests are still there and in good shape. Loads of them. Of all parts of the interior to get messed up, the arm rests would be the last I would see rot or get worn away. Someone please explain that one to me. Must be a climate thing or something like that.

You're in Ann Arbor MI, I'm close in southern ON. Our climate is almost the same. (Got buddies in Howell, NOVI and Detroit, kool spot) Got to be more to it than that.
