I would love to have three of them to use for a servo retrofit on my manual
Bridgeport. I've already got amps, and I'm hot on the trail of some surplus
servo motors, so this would just about do it. I'm happy to pay the shipping
of course.

This is a good deal! If you have trouble later, you can probably put a PC
based control on and reuse the motors, encoders, and amps from the Bandit.
The Bandits I have seen had Baldor servo motors which are a top brand.
