He said they were salmon colored, so he didn't wear them.
That's funny. My old priest in the SSPX also refused to wear the Rose vestments. The reason he gave was because they were the wrong color. He said they were pink and not rose. To him they were supposed to be "salmon colored."

The priest didn't wear the rose vestments on Guadete Sunday because he didn't like them?  :facepalm:
Exactly my reaction. He sounds a bit over-precious and pampered. 
When so many people are struggling to survive, with loss of jobs and businesses I believe it would be dishonourable for him to accept such an offer. 
Having money to spare, you are very blessed. Why don’t you have a quiet word with him about how people suffer for lack of real needs. It might wake him up to reality. I heard from my friend who raises money for the Indian orphans that they are presently in grave need.

Considering that the liturgical color is actually a choice on that day, the priest is within his rights to wear violet

If I'm not mistaken, I think it is permitted to wear purple on Gaudete and Laetare Sundays.

Ah, you beat me to it.  That is my recollection as well.
