I paid the $200. Figuring worse case I can get $12 per battery plus the scrap value of all the steel, wiring, etc. But....hoping for better payday as more than scrap. I also bought some old IBM AS400 equipment they had listed as well. Going to do some homework on selling it as-is, just wondered if anyone here has done the same.

I missed that point Shen, there was some good answers in this thread about components, inverters etc that you might find worth looking in to
