New, sealed solar pallets cheaper than used. In this video I show where auctions fit in the market, how I set alerts, what to watch in the fine print, and how I run the landed cost math so I do not overpay. I also walk through a real deal on 360 W panels at about 10 cents per watt, plus a quick look at current and past auctions, and a preview of the Ambri lab gear sale.
