Merely passing on the info, you will have to work out details & pricing w/ seller.
The former moderator of the Metrology Forum, "The Real Leigh", passed away a couple months back. His widow is selling off his shop. I was there yesterday and took 43 photos and you can view them by clicking the link to a folder in my google drive below.
Items are located in an Industrial park in Beltsville, MD. You will have to make arrangements w/ her to visit during the day as there is currently no operable electrical lighting. The unit has a skylight that illuminates the space adequately to see during daylight. And opening the door and/or roll-up lets addtl light in. But bring a good flashlight.
She will not ship anything, You will have to visit the building. The adjacent unit owner has a forklift and has offered its use for the machines. It would be an easy straight and almost level move-out through the roll-up door out to asphalt.
It is unclear if 3-phase machines can be powered. I didn't investigate their electrical connections. The 3-phase machines all looked to be disconnected from power.
