RE: Replacement BC Epics XL-MCL parts - NOT FROM BC

Hi Jenny-
Just to reiterate. We use Steve Landber from Cytoserv as well.	He may
be in your neck of the woods since we are not too far from one another!
I have his contact info if you need it.

Hi Jenny -
Like Bill, we have used CytoServe which in the Midwest is covered by
Steve Landberg. Steve was our former Coulter service rep and he does an
excellent job. I'm confident he could help with parts as well.

Hi Jenny...

For Beckman-Coulter XL service, we have used CytoServe, operated by
Ozzie Del Valle (formerly of Coulter and Alternative Biomedical
Services).  His company does preventative maintenance and instrument
service on XLs and XL-MCLs, and can probably help you with parts too.
He does good work.

His phone is 786-256-3141.

Hi all!

I have a question for all you experienced flow cytometrists out there.
In a recent move,
a couple of fittings on our Beckman-
Coulter Epics XL-MCL were broken.  We need to order some replacement
parts, but have
recently been unhappy with BC's
customer service department and wish to take our business elsewhere if
possible.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to where we might find an outside
supplier for
Beckman-Coulter Flow replacement
parts?	Thanks a ton!  All suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Jenny
