Glassware garge sale for non-profit

crazyboy - 3-9-2009 at 16:25

I recently discovered this website which is selling a considerable amount of glassware at reasonable prices. Apparently the profits go to stopping world hunger and cancer research. The baseline price is about half the Fisher catalogue price but most prices seem to be negotiable. The owner is a good guy and although I haven't actually ordered from him yet he seems honest.

Here's the link: http://www.wissh.org/Glassware.htm

Ken has told me that he normally acceps around 1/2 the catalogue price of the items from the Wilmad Labglass catalogue which can be found here: http://www.wilmad-labglass.com/category/1857

Some things are quite cheap, while I can others custom blown for slightly cheaper. All in all, one is better off ordering some things here, some things from eBay and some things from Lab Depot if they want to save money. Shopping around can work wonders! I should ask about the autospy saw just out of curiosity :P
