    What would you pay for these?

    Well, not quite on the scale of my previous post about the big commercial equipment, I am bidding on some items at an auction. There are two large A/C units and four boxes of cell phones. What would you pay for these?

    (The A/C units are detached and sitting on pallets. My assistant is in the picture to give a sense of scale. I did not measure the units.)

    I would say $50 for the big one and $20 for the small one and you should make a good profit. Cellphones I pay $2.50 a pound for in my area.

    I would pay up to 75 on the big one and 50 on the small one and still make a proffit. The cell phones are a diffrant story, can't tell from pics. if any of them have batteries, some don't, do any power up? If they power up you can get more for them, if don't take the batteries out and sell the batteries seprate, scrap cell phone go for up to 6.50 per lbs. The fire extinquishers, some look like ss, don't know how many there are,I wouldn't pay more than 2 bucks ea. But then again I'm cheap.
