Like most of the marine engines made by Mamod, the SEL engine lacked a lubricator and needed careful setting up to work correctly. The ME3 was in production from 1965 to 1972, by which time (and after 2,700 units) all the SEL engines that Malins Engineers had purchased at a knock-down price from J & L Randall (parent of the SEL brand) had been used up.

In 1889, it bought of land at Thornton Heath for £2,000. (This may have sounded a good deal. Twenty years previously the Board of Health had bought from John Bennington for £3,000.) However, the company had no spare capital to carry out construction. They tried to sell the land but found the value had been overestimated. The original vendor bought back at a knock down price, but the firm went bankrupt in 1892.

Although taking no part in the disturbances, the family were unfaltering Jacobites. However, Ferguson's Jacobite ideologies did not prevent him purchasing lands forfeited by the Earl Marischal at a knock- down price. When lands became available through the York Buildings Company he took full advantage of the reluctance of other landowners, who were afraid to be seen to exploit the downfall of fellow Jacobites, and bought extensively. It was during this time that he also acquired Deer Abbey.

The hut was mainly used as a base for summer excursions, but was occasionally used for climbing and snow walks. The hut survived the 1939 bushfires but by the 1960s it was in poor condition. Federation Hut was built higher up the hill to replace it and Feathertop Hut collapsed in the late 1970s. The Feathertop Bungalow was built in 1925 and operated successfully as a 26-bed hotel for two years before problems with land tenure forced the owners to sell it to the railways at a knock down price.

Leven Harbour had been declining due to silting, and in 1883 the Wemyss Estates (Randolph Wemyss, his tenant colliers and certain other business interests) acquired the Leven Harbour Company for £15,000, on 15 August 1883. This knock-down price for a useless harbour included the short branch line. Coal production in the area was expanding enormously, and Wemyss clearly foresaw that modern harbour facilities were appropriate to handle it. He enlarged the dock at Methil, a short distance westward on the coast: it opened on 5 May 1887.

The site of Christ's Hospital station had been previously used by the Aylesbury Dairy Company which had a small wooden platform on the Mid-Sussex Railway for milk to be taken to London. This platform had fallen into disuse upon the bankruptcy of the dairy after it lavished large sums of money on farm buildings. The estate was purchased in 1897 at a knock-down price by Christ's Hospital school, which had been seeking to move from London. It was expected that the school would attract large numbers of visitors which would need to be accommodated by the railway.

It was monopolised by traders from Kashmir and Ladakh, and the only outsider with whom they dealt was Maharaja Ranjit Singh, the powerful Sikh ruler of Lahore. Ranjit was very zealous of his privilege, and he was the last person the British could afford to offend at this time of crisis and uncertainty. So the East India Company never did get its shawl wool. When it finally acquired the Punjab and Kashmir, after the Sikh Wars of the 1840s, it had long since given up trade, and Kashmir was so little valued that it was quickly discarded – sold for a knock-down price to the Raja of Jammu.

After two months in Norway, Helga calls Gunnar asking for a divorce. Gunnar sells his horses at a knock- down price to be able to buy a plane ticket to Norway to try to save the marriage but is thwarted by the 2010 eruptions of Eyjafjallajökull and their consequent disruption of air traffic. Gunnar's rage provokes the appearance of a representation of his inner Viking, depicted as a huge, bald, black-haired, axe-wielding figure reminiscent of Egill Skallagrímsson, and a fantasy of raising a Níðstöng against his oppressors followed by a homicidal, spade- wielding rampage against them. Gunnar does not, however, follow through on this, instead chasing the Viking away.

Shortly after the French Revolution and France's annexation of the southern Netherlands, the royal chapel was sold as state property of the French Republic. An unscrupulous Parisian businessman Thomas Gillet bought it at a knock-down price, having already acquired the neighbouring abbeys of Aywiers and Wauthier-Braine. From then on mass was celebrated secretly in a barn at the farm of Philippe Pastur's widow by the brave abbot Bierlaire, an opponent of the French occupied like most of his Brabançon fellow-priests. To cash in on his investments, the speculator dismantled the buildings and sold the materials, stripping the lead off the royal chapel's roof to sell to army suppliers to make rifle bullets, but local opposition was so strong that he hesitated to continue.

As a Jew, Fleischmanns bars had been repeatedly disrupted by the SA since the autumn of 1932, which ultimately led to Fleischmann having to sell her premises at a knock-down price as part of the anti-Semitic deprivation of rights by the state. Then in 1933 all lesbian bars were closed by the National Socialists, magazines were banned, open events as before were no longer possible, so that Hahm could no longer work either. In spite of the risks involved, Hahm and Fleischmann have now joined forces to continue offering places of lesbian subculture. They renamed the women's club "Violetta" veiled in "Sportclub Sonne", whose events took place until December 1934 in the Jewish Lodge House in Joachimsthaler Straße 13 (today the Central Orthodox Synagogue Berlin) and in 1935 in Berliner Straße 53.

Act 1 On board Stevenson’s yacht Arabella Stevenson, a tough American businessman arrives at Trouville with his beautiful wife Ketty, her young Canadian maid Julia and the Captain Harris. He is there to buy land in Colorado – at a knock-down price - which a young Frenchman Robert Perceval has inherited, and who doesn’t realize that the oil may be found on the land. Distrustful of Frenchmen, Stevenson makes his wife Ketty (a former music-hall star) to show herself in public as an old woman, with white hair and tinted glasses; he forces her to swear this on the Bible. Robert comes on board, along with his friend Le Barrois and his wife Hélène, Robert’s jealous mistress, who is reassured by the sight of an old woman in glasses.

Neile then bought it for A£600 - a knock-down price for so elaborate a structure. He maintained the whole property as a going concern until 1876. It featured extensive cleared and fenced paddocks, paling-fenced orchard and picking garden adjacent to the west side of the house, extensive buildings/quarters set on a knoll above the alluvial flats and below the ridge line, extensive trees and shrubs to the east or front entry, probably cypress, Bunya or hoop pines and other broad-canopied trees, a three-storey mill, livestock shelters and paddocks, ploughed paddocks and a cottage fronting the Northern Road's eastern side farm. In 1863 Abraham Davy of Harrington Park purchased Lot 1 of Orielton Farm () from three Sydney businessmen who had earlier purchased the estate - John Lait of Sydney, James Ryan of Emu Plains and James Jones of Sydney.

It was Wales' only long-term, mature-student residential education college and was established in 1927 by Thomas Jones, Deputy Secretary to the Cabinet under four prime ministers including David Lloyd George and Stanley Baldwin, to continue the work of Workers' Educational Association in a residential environment, with Ben Bowen Thomas as its first warden. Plas Wernfawr was acquired at a knock-down price from a seller sympathetic to the project to be the base for the college. Starting with just six students, mostly from the South Wales Coalfield area, numbers increased to 30 in the 1930s, 70 in the 1960s, serving the whole of Wales. Then, with Ieuan Jeffries-Jones as warden, Coleg Harlech began offering a two-year diploma course validated by the University of Wales, which became a preparation for university education for those who had missed out on earlier education: it became well known as a "second chance" college, often for people who, for economic or social reasons, never had a first chance.
