While looking for solar panels over the years I have come across sites like these, which sell new/used panels at the wholesale volume (typically a pallet as a aminimum).

With the pricing on some panels being quite low, even though they may be used and 10yrs old they do seem quite useable for the price and wondering if anyone has dealt with any of them or companies like them ? Yes, some of the pricing does take two looks to check.
The reason being is that I would be tempted to order some for shipment into the UK, but worst case I can't really fit a 20ft container on the driveway and the wife would divorce me if I filled up the front room with solar panels. Pallets yes, container I can't handle here.
Any thoughts / comments ?
In this instance :
"5000 Modules CFTC SOLAR 335Wp poly - 72 Cells at 0,15 / Wp per CTN (782 Pcs), FOB Shanghai"
0,15 / Wp == 335 x 0.15 == 50 per panel (loaded on ship in shanghai)
Shipping + taxes would push pricing up around 25% (VAT+duty) + say 5000 handling per container
65 per panel... in 20ft container size.
