Thats a great deal....
Are the traps serviceable, i.e. strong working springs? Is the metal in the jaws and frame of trap in good shape?
If not they will make great decorations for the trap shed/ home/ hunting cabin. I've got between twenty and thirty old conibears/ longsprings/ coilsprings/ jump traps that I keep as decorations in my apartment but you can get away with that when you are a bachelor.

You got a real good deal, bud...i am sure they'll see good use and woodfin's right folks are looking to get rid of traps in a lot of situations because most just don't know what to do with them.
