Complete Lab Clearance Sale!

Justin - 28-3-2011 at 20:09

Hi, i've been a long time lurker and occasional poster, but the time has come for me to clear out my lab:( With a baby on the way and my wedding coming up my wife is forcing me to sell all my reagents and equipment. I live in the USA, international shipping will be availible on all equipment however i will not ship certain reagents internationally. Below is a brief sampling of what i have to offer.

I have pyrex, kimax RBF's in sizes 250mL too 2L, 250mL and 2L glascol mantles with variac. Corning PC220 hotplate/stirrer.All types of condensors and adaptors, most are pyrex, kimax, or ace however one 2L RBF is kantu and a vigreax is UGT as are a few other items.

As far as chems i have 4L amounts of of a few common solvents, bases and acids(including 4L 70% HNO3 and 1L RFNA), some of the more interesting reagents i have is, approx 500g Na, 200g I2, 100g HgI2, 250g Hg, and 8L nitromethane, most are reagent grade however a few are tech grade, i will see which are when i take inventory. I have a wide assorment of other misc chems.

Im taking pictures of my equipment as i write this, i don't take pictures often so does anyone reccomend a good hosting site?? I should have my pictures finished within a week. I will also be listing a comphrehensive inventory shortly. In the mean time PM me if you are interested and have any questions about a certain reagent or equipment being availible and any questions about prices.

Thanks

Sorry to hear you have to clear your lab! Do you have t-BuOH? Looking forward to the complete list, sounds like you have a lot of interesting stuff! I've been looking for t-BuOH, CS2, and maybe amping up my distillation kit for some time.

Justin - 28-3-2011 at 21:05

Yeah it sucks but i gotta do it, hopefully i'll have a decent lab again in 5 years or so. sorry no t-BuOH or CS2, i do have 1L of Et2O however and thats flammable enough for me, CS2 is a monster! Yes i have a 300mm graham, about 3 300mm liebigs, a couple 75 degree still heads and 105's with vacuum taps etc etc. Btw all of my glassware is 24/40. If someone buys enough i'll throw in a tube of Dow Corning high vacuum grease for free and maybe a mercury thermometer if im in a good mood lol

hkparker - 28-3-2011 at 21:08

24/40 was what I was going for, perfect. link me once you get a complete list please!

beergod - 28-3-2011 at 21:24

pm sent, also how much would you want for a 105 degree adapter with vac tap? Is the tap just a tube coming off the adapter or does it have an internal tube connected to it? Im sorry don't know a better way of asking.

Justin - 28-3-2011 at 21:48

it has a glass barb that is right below the sealed off drip tip that extends down to close to the end of the male joint. I also have one that is straight in order to use for fractionation under vacuum with an equalized addition funnel so you can easily separate fractions. PM sent

Wizzard - 29-3-2011 at 04:52

I'm looking for some random labware- I'll certainly make an offer once your upload some pictures :) Also, PM sent for your iodine and nitric acid.

nitric - 29-3-2011 at 06:35

Interesting, any complete list going to put up. Also sent a PM for your ether.

organometallic - 29-3-2011 at 14:28

Justin - 29-3-2011 at 15:26

hkparker - 13-4-2011 at 19:42

Order came in today.

Overall I am very happy. Everything was packaged very tightly and box had a "fragile glass" label on it which I appreciate. Mossy tin came in a Ziploc bag. Not ideal, but I don't think I'm alone when I say I have quite a few HDPE containers laying around :D. Glass fritted bubbler was in pretty good shape, claisen still head had a few scratches on the inside but otherwise all glassware was in like new condition. Would buy again.

Order came in a day ago.

Everything was packed well and the items were individually wrapped with padding. There are a few stains but its negligible. Service was great and overall, I am very happy. Would definitely consider buying again.

Wizzard - 19-4-2011 at 11:31

My order came in over the weekend (thanks mailroom guy) and when opened today, everything was very well packed and in good shape. I wish I had known the rubber on the coldfingers was completely cracked, but it's all good.

I have plenty of 70% ACS nitric acid for sale, im lowering the price also, PM for details.

All chems are packaged in either amber glass bottles, HDPE reagent bottles or the original bottle depending on chemical compatability. Chemicals that must be packed in glass bottles will include a $4 charge for the bottle, thats what i pay for them at the local science shop, it will be included in the price quote. An example is the nitric, it originally came in 4L glass bottles. Chems that can be packaged in HDPE will incur no charge.

Justin,
Just wondering if that 4l ehrlenmeyer is 24\40?

simba - 21-5-2011 at 17:08

Why does your wife wants you to get rid of your lab stuff?

Anyway, I think you won't be shipping nitromethane abroad, but if you do, how much you want for the whole thing?

Justin - 18-5-2012 at 11:54
