junkyard magnet

Dear All,

This message might have more of an anecdotal character, but I am sure all of
you might find it interesting:

This morning my colleague discovered what appears to be Bruker 200 MHz
supercon NMR Magnet sitting outside on a junkyard in Metro Atlanta.
The junkyard is asking $300 for this magnet - possibly they are even willing
to go lower! Unfortunately the junkyard has only the magnet, the
spectrometer already has been trashed completely!

Is there any reason why it would be worth purchasing this magnet (other than
that it would be a unique decoration for my yard)?

If anybody is seriously interested: I can certainly find out the contact
information of the junk yard.

Kind Regards,

Hanno
