Do we have a case?

In August 2016 my husband and I closed our business. My husband and a friend of his made a verbal agreement that our screen printing equipment (press, dryer etc.) would be stored at his friend's house in the garage. My husband was to be given a key so that he would have access to it whenever he needed. Since the friend was keeping it at his home free of charge, the friend could use it as needed. They were going to have the proper electrical outlets installed in the garage and they would split the cost. My husband kept in contact with the friend for several months and was brushed off when it came to him getting a key. My husband and I decided it would be best to get the equipment after several attempts the friend agreed on a date and time that it could be picked up. When it came to that time the friend said he would be working late and it would need to be rescheduled. Time went on and there were several unsuccessful attempts made here and there to contact the friend.
