We have a perfectly fine but underused spinning disk system with Andor Q3 software, yokogawa CSU X1 unit, Frappa and Airtable. As I can not justify the hefty service contract, we decided that the system should go sooner or later. I'd rather see it raising some funds than wither and die to end up in the scrapyard.  Does anyone know where one can advertise (scientific Ebay?) or a company to sell this to? I also struggle how to calculate a fair price for second hand equipment.

We bought one of our discs on eBay (CSU21, FW, and camera).

Our sled had a second unused fiber.

Saved a LOT of money!

Best,

Gary

I'll happily take it off you, our new one is massively overused so another would be beneficial for us.
