A Find
https://labassets.com/auctions/product/30526
Looks like at least six RBFs and assorted glass for 15 euros. If anyone lives in the EU/UK I hope this is useful.

Wow! That is an awesome price. I think I'll order the first one because it seems it has quickfit glassware and tubes with bungs, so it's just what I'm
looking for. Let's see whether the shipping tax to Romania will ruin the deal.

I am trying not to make a joke about Romania. Its very difficult.
I would buy it but I don't think with shipping to the US it would be worth it.

There's no need to share the fact that you consider Romania a laughable country. Here we discuss chemistry, not how countries compare in different
regards. I only shared my location here because it makes it easy for others to know what equipment and chemicals are available to me.

What will you use the glassware for?

I plan to use the flasks for distillation, refluxing and for vacuum filtration. I plan to use those large test tubes with assorted bungs and glass
tubes to make different types of small chemical apparatuses. For example, I could use one as a stuck-back trap when making ammonia solution or
concentrated sodium hypochlorite solution. I could also make something I could use to make a small amount of bromine water. I could make bromine from
a bromide salt in one test tube and then lead a tube from that into another test tube in which there is cold distilled water. Afterwards, the test
tube with the bromide salt could be gently heated to boil the bromine. The possibilities for that sort of glassware are endless!

We know that many countries in that area of the world are struggling.
European countries in general, are faring less well than the U.S., right now.
That, of course, could change.
We very narrowly avoided a complete economic collapse, about a decade ago.
Other parts of the world were less fortunate.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
The U.S. has eliminated most import duties and taxes, allowing us to buy cheap goods from China and other low cost suppliers, dirt cheap.
Very good for ground floor U.S. consumers, not so good for U.S. workers. So.... if you already have money to buy consumer goods, it's a party! But,
if you are a regular working guy.... You might not have the required money, possibly because you don't actually have a job anymore.
