Looking to give away lab glass/equipment. Specifically Dallas/Fort Worth

have_stuff_to_sell - 21-10-2014 at 09:45

I am moving soon and sadly will not have room to bring all of my old lab supplies. This is all supplies that I acquired in high school, either from my grandpa who was a chemist, or from Dr.Bob. I'm not interested in selling it, but giving it away to someone who will use it and appreciate it. I live in-between Dallas and Fort Worth, I would be willing to meet someone who lives in the North Texas area halfway. I'm hesitant to ship it, just because of the hassle and how much it would be. But if someone would be willing to pay for shipping I might consider shipping the equipment.

Wow you're giving it away, that's very generous. Do you have an idea of how much shipping would be to NY?

I've sent you a U2U concerning possibly shipping some of this equipment.

Would it be feasible to ship one of those hot plates to the northwest suburbs of Chicago? Maybe a medium or large flat rate box? This is one big piece of my lab equipment that I am missing and would love to have one, if possible. I'll pay for shipping costs, of course. Thanks for being so generous as to give this equipment away, and I wish you well in any future endeavors. :)

I'm interested in the vacuum dessicator chamber, and have sent a U2U regarding shipping.

Having trouble messaging this user....

To anyone requesting any item via shipping. I'm going to wait a few days to give someone closer to me the chance to reply, if no one does, then I will begin responding to the individual request in the order I received them.

I live in Austin, so that's closer, but still not close enough to easily meet up. Shipping should be pretty cheap though. If it comes down to that, I'm interested in the Claisen adapter and the vacuum take-off.
Also, I know that member Zyklon-A lives in Dallas. He hasn't been online on the forum lately, but I can text him and let him know about the offer.

Very generous of you, and very impressive equipment.

Responding from an ocean away so I have no horse in this race.

It seems to me that with all the difficulties in getting good lab equipment in Tx, this generous offer is ideally suited to someone in that part of the world.

any of that still available?

I live in Dallas and can come pick up anything you might have left tomorrow

Tungsten.Chromium - 28-10-2014 at 07:38

I am in Houston and can drive out there whenever. sending you a PM now

SimpleChemist-238 - 29-10-2014 at 16:39

I am in florida, anything left? I am interested in organic chemistry equipment, any flasks or distillation equipment?

woodtick - 6-11-2014 at 16:24

Zyklon-A - 11-11-2014 at 10:16
