Peter:

I've been in the surplus business for quite a while, a wonder the same thing.

probably   there are lots of """dealers"""  with friends at the drmo.

for fun some time,  look at current govliq sales and compair ( notice 
) they sell exact same items some with euc, some without,  but if  we 
(the buyers)  make a mistake,  its us, not govliq that gets nailed.
