Re: [DIYbio] Re: Cheaper OpenPCR

You could ask the ebay seller to run through the self test. Just write very clear step by step directions on how and to post pics of each test result. Thats how i got my working gene amp 9600. Cheap but very large. Works great! Chances are some sellers would go the extra step to sell their stock. Good luck.
