    Electric controls?

    Control Panels (9 Pieces) - GovDeals.com

    Anyone have any clue as to what these are? Tried google but had no luck.

    Looking at the other electrical items they are selling
    seems they had a small electric plant going and those look like the panels to bring the Generators online
    Did you notice the other large copper items at the same location?

    I'd bid 200.00 and be very comfortable that I would make good money in scrap.

    I'd be comfortable bidding up to $300 myself on the 9 units. Out of the nine units, the steel alone that's in these units would pay that off. The copper and aluminum would be pure profit. Good luck, fnd5055.

    No, unfortanetly I was trying to use my tablet from work. The connection was very slow, my office is like a freaking bunker, so I couldn't get a final bid in on time. Very painful when I saw the winning bid. Next time, there will always be a next time.
