I love how he went on for "minutes" telling you that he didn't have time to explain it to you! What's up with that? How difficult can it be? "I found a cheaper place." "I found a more convenient place" "I found out that the storage place's owner's mother is a hamster and his father smells of elderberries."
Maybe he's invoking some ancient Finnish law that allows a man to divorce his wife if he can get her to give up her sled for the weekend, and get her to sign a document releasing title to her reindeer (or, in the modern version, tires). I'd suggest you consult an attorney who specializes in ancient Finnish law.
