I bid and won 5 lots on sale 2616 lots#0521 #0522 #0523 #0524 #0525 and sale 2624 lot#1009
for a total of $1579.60
The items were listed as a f7 code. (economically repairable)
I paid and found out from the distributor that the items that
I purchased were scrapped out from the navy. He himself was
the one who scrapped them. And that the condition code should have read (s) for scrap. He also said that the items could not be identified by a lay person as scrap unless torn apart.
This was put into a signed statement and forwarded with my claim to Govermentliquidation for a full refund. The company turned down my request on all 6 lots. Costing me $1579.60. The value of these 6 items was 5 cents a pound. Or 100.00 total.
