I came across this auction for laboratory inventory and thought some of you might be interested:

Glassware, equipment, consumables.
It's located in two towns in Switzerland. They require you to pickup or arrange shipping yourself. Possibly a forum member lives nearby?

Wow, sounds like fun.
One of the few times I wish I lived in Europe :)

I like the "patio heaters" (item 72), obviously only of any use if you have a very small patio (say 250 ml) :)

Is there a member that lives near, or how to i arrange shipping?

Sorry, I was not clear, the reason I do not want to live in Europe is not about size, it is because I have found that European countries tend to be even more "Nanny state" than the U.S. and Canada.
BTW, I am from Canada.

Maybe someone here lives in the Netherlands and can pick up some nice equipment cheap.
