This can be said to the majority of any market part(s). Some just don't have the space to store replaced OEM parts. In the end, most who upgrade are not too concerned about keeping and/or replacing the OEM when selling.

For example, I just replaced three toilets in my house and I'm not gonna store them and replace them when it comes to sell.

Sorry, but that is a poor analogy. You would, if each of your toilets were $1200 a piece and you could recover $1000 for each.
And if you have a house with three bathrooms, you have room.

Not necessarily, my condo is 2 1/2 bathrooms(3 toilets) and there's no room to store toilets lol

I had the shop throw my OEM exhaust out. After 33k miles in Boston, it was badly rusted anyway.
