Hi Folks,
We are starting to consider the purchase of a Luminex bead assay cytometer (for
soluble analytes).  I am generally pretty naive about marketing strategies --- but I am
totally confused by the fact that Luminex has just quoted me about $49,000 for their
system,  but Hitachi (a so-called "partner" of Luminex) has quoted me $37,000 for the
same system.  What is going on here?   Has anyone bought a Luminex system recently?
>From whom did you buy it?  And, BTW, are you happy with it?
