What happened

A research scientist we work with had their lab shut down. The funding dried up, the university was consolidating, and the choice was: store the equipment indefinitely, scrap it, or find someone who'd use it.

They chose the third option. We stepped in to handle the listing, the photography, the buyer outreach, and the shipping. They get a fair check. The equipment goes to a lab that will actually use it. Universities save 60–80% off list. Nobody wins alone here, but nobody loses either.

What's for sale

The catalog is small and selective. There's a David Kopf micromanipulator (the gold standard for stereotaxic neurosurgery), a second precision microdrive, a pair of XY translation stages, vintage microscopy consumables from Scientific Products and Clay Adams, two cases of scintillation vials, and a few glassware pieces.

It's not a fire sale. We're pricing at used-market rates, not scrap. Universities, teaching labs, and PIs with tight budgets can get premium gear at significant discounts — and the original lab gets compensated fairly for equipment that would otherwise sit in a closet.

How to buy

There's no e-commerce cart. Universities don't buy lab equipment with credit cards anyway — they need quotes, POs, net-30 terms, and W-9s.

Click any item, hit Request Quote, and we'll respond the same day with: line-item pricing, shipping estimate, payment terms (PO / wire / ACH), and a custom W-9 if needed. Most orders ship within 5 business days.

What's "institutional only"?

We sell to accredited universities, colleges, community colleges, and educational nonprofits. We do not ship to private resellers, individuals, or overseas buyers. If you're a PI and your institution is the buyer, that works. If you're an individual hobbyist, check LabX or eBay.
