Re: EquipNet Auctions: Featuring Equipment from Bayer Healthcare & Other Leading Global Firms!

Do your homework! I got a bidder ID and everything for an online
equipment auction that took place in Quebec a few months ago and was
appalled at how far above market value many of the items went. Well, I
guess they went at precisely that day's market value, but way above
what could have been found on ebay or at the university surplus
outlets. Caveat emptor!
