Isn't it really strange that they decide only some time after you get the item that they shouldn't have sold it?
Seems a bit late...
I've read about destruction of sensitive equipment once, they even accounted for the possibility of information burnt into the screen, in which case the CRT was supposed to be smashed....
Oh well, and here I was going to buy that military hospital, better not then.... ;-)

I'm not current on the regulations, but I recall some items being flagged "non-export" or similarly restricted, and requirements for documentation of any future resale.? They wanted a Tek specan back from me, but it too had been parted out...? I just don't want to deal with them anymore.

One should be warned about government auctions- if, down the road, someone decides that the items should not have been sold for whatever reason, they will come asking for you to return them. ?Many stories have been told here in the past. I dodged the bullet, and will no longer buy from any of these auctions regardless of how good the deals are.
