Government liquidations

[Scottie]

Alright, since all of us here are so in love with bad movies, here is your immediate chance to make one for little or no cost. There are three things needed to make a movie: actors, an idea, and a camera. The first two are easy to come by, but if you're strapped for cash, a camera might be hard to come by.... that is unless you aren't picky about what format you want to use. This website,

govliquidation.com

sells everything once used by the military, broken or not, at a starting price of $35.00. Digital cameras, digital camcorders, Hi8, DV, VHS recorders all exist for little to nothing here! Equipment that once cost thousands of dollars is being sold for next to nothing.

this is only some of the things they have. Granted, it may have been overly used in its time so some of it may not work, but the site tells you what does and does not work with a rating system. I'm getting some of the surplus to experiment with the different styles of digital medium that have been invented over the years. I especially love VHS recorders, Betacam, and a thing called Pixelvision from Fisher Price. This place is great. Plus, if you want some tv, and don't care what it looks so long as it works, this place is perfect for that too. Oh man, just dive right in!

Just checked out some of the stuff at glance Scottie, but I do have one question:

Do these guys ship, and how does all of that work?

[Scottie]

Yes they do ship. I'm not fully sure how it works, but I believe once you register with the website, you will have more access to such information. Here is a portion of the site that may help:

Upon further inspection, it appears you select a transport company to pick up the item that you have won and deliver it to your door on your own. The site lists a number of transporters who are in the area who may be able to do it, but it's up to you, not the bidding website, to make sure it gets to your hands. Sounds a little challenging.
