Having a clearout and i've got a few electrical bit's which are surplus but not sure where the best place is to sell it all, obvious thought is eBay but i dont know if i'd get any interest.





(plus front cover obviousley)

Just seems a shame to bin it all.

The metal clad sockets will definitely sell ok on ebay - just make sure you get the postage cost right as they'll weigh a fair bit.

metalclad twin sockets are about £3 each these days, so you might get a tenner or so for the lot.

certain (a few) old breakers can go for £20 or so each if they're discontinued and there's demand for them.

As above.
Definately check what your old breakers are selling for, they may be of the rare variety!

I Just did a quick search for federal MCBs and found a screwfix thread from earlier in the year bemoaning the lack of availability and the £30 price tag on ebay.

You might be in luck!

Did a quick search of FE breakers on ebay, some look similar and are pricey!.

Have you removed one of them for a closer look?, sometimes there is information on the side of them.
