After getting tired of a few long term members floating disinformation through either ignorance or jealousy insisting the gov't could come and take our private property anytime they feel like I decided to contact the DLA directly. Not only did they respond by email, but they called me twice to talk to me about it. A gentleman named Evans took the time to answer all my questions. What the answer comes down to is a simple big fat NO they can not confiscate your property after the sale.
They will occasionally ask that the property be returned under certain conditions like the Marines needing a piece of equipment the Army sold, major war, safety issue ect , he also stated unequivocally we can simply say no, and that would be the end of it. So collect away and don't worry about this particular fear mongering any longer.
Thank you for contacting DLA. Below are details regarding your issue
and/or concern.

Lawrence Evans called Mr. Stevens 0930, 29 October 2018 to discuss his
concerns. He explained to him that the government does not #confiscate#
property but does occasionally request items sold be returned for a
variety of reasons. He outlined the four reasons that are most
prevalent.
A. Military need, a service has a requirement for an item that was
previously declared excess.
B. Humanitarian or disaster support.
C. Safety issue or latent defect in the item.
D. Change in coding, normally the demil code, that makes the item not
eligible for sale under DOD policy.
Mr. Stevens was satisfied with the information given and very
appreciative of the phone call.
