My Heatware (New, but I've sold stuff over LS1Tech and you can find me there)
I will update the thread when units are sold or if I get more.
ADDED NEW TRADE REQUESTS
New Units that were either new-old stock/had a few scratches, or they were previously used in the 80Plus Certification testing (which is done just a stones throw from me) and only have about 3-4hrs use. Most of these you may not be familiar with due to the fact they aren't by a manufacturer who sells in North America. If I dig up who the OEM is, I will let you know. THESE ARE NOT SHIFTY UNITS! They aren't what you'd get in your mom's HP rig
I would not buy these if I wouldn't personally use them, which I will be! I trust them enough to power my new 890GX system.
If it's your first time here, please read the following! Thank you!
NOT INTENTIONALLY HIDING ANYTHING! I've just had this thread going awhile so I'm using this to clean it up, with out actually removing info.
FOR SALE
ALL GONE!
Only possibility for future sale is, what I'll from now on refer to it as, the CWT Toughpower 1000W or Abee Supremer 1200W. The latter is the one I mentioned which has the odd whine (kinda sounds like coil whine) in relation to the fan when the PC is off, which actually goes away with in a couple minutes. I've been using that one as I traded the Powerex to GSG-9, and didn't want the big boy CWT on the desk as space is limited So far I'm happy with it and I may decide to use it instead of the CWT! Time shall tell 
=-=-=-=
Public Service Announcement: Please be aware that the units that draw more than 1250W from the wall, you will want to be damn careful of the power cord overheating (this is just general need-to-know). Most are 18AWG and, at least the couple I have, and specify on them they are only rated for 1250W. There are some units that have a different plug on the PSU with sideways posts and come with an HD cable (rated for 250v), but none of these I have do, so be careful please! I've read that some of the higher end retails units come with a bit thicker cable. One person had a 16AWG and someone else reported seeing one that is 14AWG. I think the "HD cable" I mentioned is 14AWG.For my 1000W I hacked up one of my cables and fitted solid core, but I don't recommend that as it was a total PITA and time consuming 
I've discovered that they sell the PSU end of the cable in a split case design so the user can custom make a cable (a few high end audio setups utilize the same style plug), which is called an "IEC Rewireable" as it has little screws in it to clamp on to the wire instead of soldering it in. So I'll plan on remaking it with that end

I get these from a gentleman who puts them on a PSU tester to make sure they are good to go. I also do my own testing (voltage and small load tests) to make sure I'm happy with them. I've purchased 7 PSUs from him so far and plan to keep at least 3 of those, so I'm not selling units that I wouldn't trust. He also has said to me that he won't sell me units he doesn't like and if I find something I don't like with them I can exchange it. Again these are units I would personally use! Example is the one I got from him which has a hum when in standby, reason? The fan controller gives some juice to the fan, otherwise it doesn't do it if the power switch is off. (So I got a nice 1200W PSU for cheaper than you can imagine lol)
Some of these may have scratches, but the only two like that are these Channel Wells (CWT), one of which I'm hanging onto myself.
Sorry, none come with a new power cord, as I didn't get one with them. I'll offer a 7-day, upon it's arrival) DOA, but not a whole lot more I can do from there. If it is with in the 30days I get from the guy, I'll be happy to exchange it or refund you. If you want an exchange, most likely won't be for the same model but I'll make sure it is as good or better. Either way though, I'd have to ask for the dead unit back though. I won't be able to pay shipping in that case, but if you are getting a replacement I won't charge for shipping back to you.

Oh I forgot, that unit is going to become a bench-top power supply for random projects
