You need at least one more catagory: Rescuers.
I'm a user but I have rescued more Amigas than I can use at once. I find them sometimes for free and can't stand the notion that they might be lost. Then I spend money (not too much) expanding them in a way unique to the others in the collection. I treasure all of them.
I wouldn't mind parting with a few, but, I can't find anyone who would value them as they deserve to be.
Also, Amigas are trapped by their video output. It's not too tough to find a 500, but, displays that will do it justice are becoming rare and expensive for a 20 year old machine.
One last thought. Many ppl seem to be concerned about Amiga hardware failures. I've been an Amiga user since '88, and haven't seen any catastrophic failures.
