As a 92Y, one of my tasks is to turn in stuff to DRMO (Defense Reutilization and Marketing Office). Is a warehouse full of all kind of items, medical to fitness. You would be surprised of all they have and you can buy from them here: http://www.govliquidation.com/

Have you bought from DRMO? Did you even know you can?

I've thought about it but never acted on it. Almost bought a decommissioned CG boat, but it would tip the HHG allowance.

I have. I bought a 5ton cargo and a woodworking shaper. If you can take a trip to look at the item you are going to bid on. Read the fine details and know what you're purchasing. Usually anything that requires power on larger equipment is three-phase. If you're purchasing a vehicle read and understand how to obtain the title.

SGT(P) Private RallyPoint Member - Personally, I bought some deuce-gear --mostly for camping/hiking. But, I had on old Maintenance Chief who bought repair parts for a lot of our equipment. After showing the CO the savings, he got to go on orders --kind of a paid vacation for that guy. There's a lot of cool stuff... if you like olive drab things, of course.

SGT(P) Private RallyPoint Member, thus I'm guessing you know the difference between "junk" and "Stuff"?
I'm glad it's you and not me. I'd be like a kid looking at a cookie jar! I've never done DRMO, but I got a M1 from DCM and it turned out to be fantastic!
When I was working as a professional guide in Idaho, many times I wanted an immersion heater - they can heat massive amounts of water fast - just watch out for the launch!!
