I'll have to contact BAE and see if they just want them as I don't think there's much value out there for whatever .mil vehicle they fit. I'd say there's a 99% chance they say to scrap them as they're out of their chain of custody. Wonder what vehicle these fit and worst case is I'll just have the auction sell them for me on a regular pallet so I'll get to keep the one I need and get 50% of the sale. |

After a couple of phone calls it appears these are for BAE Systems electric motors for large vehicles (busses) and these were indeed lost freight. He said BAE will definitely be calling me because they need these....Now since I own them what do you think I should sell em back for?

Would they have insurance for these parts when they shipped them?

If it was a super high dollar item they should have hot shot them not send them ground through a common carrier... Most freight insurance though pays out by weight. I've had $10,000 restaurant equipment lost and damaged and I only got paid for it by the pound. About $2/lb. |

Also need to ask if that was all they lost because at these auctions I tend to see the same things twice. I bought two 1800lb Dana/Spicer telehandler axles a month apart for $500/each and sold them to an outfitter in Canada for $6k to use on an electric off road tour bus. Unfortunately they don't use these parts. |

Hold on man! Those may be parts from one of those electric school busses that KH expresses so much love for. You might start a bidding war between BAE and KH and Tampon Tim.

With anything I buy though I try to at least 3x-5x the money on them when I go to sell them. I'm good with that. Sending out some requests for pricing today. I'm sure these are expensive as they are limited run, made in USA and very specific for intended use. If I can get pricing on them I'd be good to sell them back to the company I contacted for 50% of their cost + freight. I would guess these would cost 2-3k each to manufacturer so will be more than happy to take half that and get them out of my warehouse. |

WAY wrong.... Quote from a company I'm in contact with about the part and price. This IS the part. I have 4 of them.
