Biomedical Engineer, BCC Phone: (502)588-7191 I read with more than a little amusement regarding comments that "trade in" ins truments are put into a warehouse. Nothing could be farther from the truth. M y last place of employment (UAB) traded in my old Epics C for a BD instrument. The instrument went directly to the dump. My former lab supervisor wasn't eve n allowed to get the laser off to give to the physics departement, or engineeri ng college. While I don't know what Coulter's policy is, I do know BD's Policy , JUNK IT!!! She tried very hard to salvage the laser for other uses but they w ouldn't budge. so I wouldn't hold your breath on getting "trade ins" to send t o anybody else. Chris
