Worse Luck, Bad Freezers

So I have been needing some new freezers for my bakery, I won some nice merchandising freezers at a auction house for a going out of business sale. They are higan dias, nestle icecream upright window ones. Well this auction house had other freezers listed with "good for parts" these were listed as a working freezer. I got two of them less then $150 each. Got them in and bam both are dead...one does not even cycle hte compressor...the other does not cool. -_- God I know life hates me but my bad luck is getting to the retarded level quick......and yeah no warranty or guarantee they work so I am screwed....hours driving, stuck in traffic for a hour due to highway wreck closure, and time spent wrestling the 229lb monsters into my building then this....

UPDATE, I called them, and gave the item in question asking about the missing "Good for Parts" statement "Oh those have the red sticker which means they do not work, we do not have to put the good for parts on everything. If you want you can bring them back by and we can relist them as a consignment without mentioning the for parts and we keep 25% and you might make more then you paid for them"

I had to hang up, the audacity to suggest I screw someone one else over....Sorry I am christian raised and this kind of scam...I would rather keep them then have another fellow human being be scammed by these people. I just now need to get the money and see if these machines can be repaired. Currently asking around...I learned some more info about these freezers.....new they are $2,663 each....I got 2 broken ones for $150 each. One has a burned out compressor ($275 fix) I see where it actually burned out and melted the wires. The other, everything runs...just not cold, odd the compressor kicks on but the low pressure lines does not get cold, assuming Freon leak somewhere and needs to be recharged with a stop leak additive, this might be a simple fix.
