The avionics in there is probably enough to get the lot recalled.

Exactly what I was thinking. Knowing the government, they will recall
it a couple years after it gets purchased and shipped
This is why nearly all surplus vendors - the exception being the guys
that just scrap the stuff out for metal content - now avoid govliq.

Just a signed affadavit saying that the stuff is no more?
If that is the case, who's going to check up on a collector who says
that he scrapped the proscribed goodies?
Not suborning perjury, just asking...

It depends. If the scrapper pretty much is established as a scrapper
on good terms with the government, generally that works.

collector who says

Sometimes men with guns. Mostly just men in black Suburbans that might
have guns.
The government does send scouts out to surplus yards to check up on things.

Suburbans have guns? Is that a special government RFQ thing?
Oh well, it probably doesn't matter as next year those will be Honda
Elements, most likely.

What avionics? The only thing I can see in the item listing that
isn't COTS is this:

Yep. I've had to fill out EUCs for HP 1351A graphics generators. Some
of the stuff I understand why there's all the red tape, but other stuff
just seems like a huge waste of taxpayer money to be imposing all that
red tape.

I saw
something about Link in that bunch. I do not remember where
exactly. It may have been thru the FSN search.
Also, remember that even COTS stuff can require EUCs and have export controls.
