I'm trying for much less, needless to say.

I would just say be careful not to overestimate the
value of the equipment
-- even a quick search of used equipment sites uncovers many refurbished
biosafety cabinets for <$5K. As you pointed out, delivery and installation
often represent a very large part of the transaction, rather than the
equipment itself.

This is a last minute thing that I am trying to leverage- any later, and it
goes back on the auction block at
BioSurpus.com They might spend a couple
thousand just to get these things moved, so if I can release their greedy
hands, this is a fabulous no-time-like-now opportunity.
After today, just watch
biosurplus.com and if you need help or assistance
with a purchase, let me know.

How much $$$? What do they normally cost? If the difference is great
enough, I might be inclined to drive down from Oregon (would have to
wire/paypal the money first).

All:
The Metabolex auction pickup closes today, and there are at least 4
biosafety cabinets in sparkling condition, certified clean and calibrated
with paperwork, that have not been picked up, possibly abandoned. I am
attempting to negotiate with BioSurplus to see if we could buy one of
them
outright for cash, but it would also likely need
to be picked up TODAY.
I think my negotiations might have a bit more oomph if I could get a
bunch
of people and a truck out to Metabolex at 3:45
today- that's in less
than 2
hours. I'm going to be there in the parking
lot- anyone who can back be
or
help me out with this, please just show up. If
you need a ride from Union
City BART around 3:30, email me directly or call me and I can pick up
one,
maybe two people from BART.
If you have tools, bring em.
The meeting place is
parking lot of Metabolex (back of building, loading dock)
3878 Bay Center Place
Hayward, CA 94545
Thanks in advance!
And if anyone needs something off my equipment list, I'd be happy to give
you an open house tour after.
