Where to Buy Used Equipment, Tools, Vehicles, Medical Supplies, Furniture and More on the Cheap

This government auction site sells everything from cop cars to plasma cutters

At a website called GovPlanet.com, you can buy a wide variety of things the government's getting rid of. Twice a week they hold two-day auctions with relatively low starting bids: $5,000 for a Humvee, $25 for a pair of plasma cutters, $25 for a box of air tools, $105 for a "Surgical Field Light," $25 for a stationary belt sander, $125 for a 2015 Ford Taurus Police Interceptor that is mysteriously missing two doors.

Pelican cases, firefighter jackets, office furniture, combat boots in lots of 90, an electric grill, ammunition cans, medical supplies…the list goes on and on. If you're looking to outfit your shop, buy a vehicle, start a militia or open an Army/Navy store, check it out.
