snipped..

In western european countries there are a number of traders selling
surplus components incl RF parts ,who move from fleamarket to fleamarket
,from country to country. A number buy surplus army kit from eastern
europe and sell these as components...........................they have
done that for many years ,hence must have a reasonable income from these
activities .
I have seen a web site related to the sale (auction) of US Government
equipment (located in Virginia) with some mouthwatering electronic
(test)equipment . There should be a market for this equipment ,even as
components.

FYI:

I was watching the "US Government" site a while and found the auctions
exceeded anything I would call a "deal on equipment"
The site is http://www.govliquidation.com/index.html
I don't know how it would work for an overseas buyer though,
