Hi Guys
I have a TSI certifier FA for sale - it comes with a high flow analyzer (needs calibrating) and carry case. Its in Very good condition and works well - it has been tested against a calibrated one to give same results.
please e-mail me brian.long123@ntlworld.com

Not a fan of eBay then, Brian?

I am but wrong Audience

Try Hilditch Brian

Can't agree there I'm afraid, Adam.

As you must remember, the auctions at Malmesbury are not much cop for small "one offs" like this.

And by the time it sold (which would depend very much upon who was actually in attendance), once all the "deductions" have been made, how much is Brian going to be left with? Answer:- not much.

Hilditch is great for hospital clearances, large job lots, and (sometimes) piles of junk!

No, a private sale is the way to go with this one. Or (as I have already hinted), as it is a small, easily packed item, I believe that an auction eBay would be worth a go.

There is a market there (on eBay). Worldwide, even.

@Brian: if you fail to sell it on here (or elsewhere), get in touch and I'll make you an offer.

Thanks for the interest everyone - its been sold.

Watch this space - i have other test equipment.

Cheers

brian

Was just throwing an idea into the fold

For one item like that, I agree EBay would more then likely be the easiest solution while keeping more of the money, saying that EBay do take more then they should, even more if you use paypal to collect the money after the sale.

With EBay at least he can sell the item where it is rather then having to go to Hilditch which is not in a central location.

EBay does have a medical/surgical audience too.. as you know of my farther Geoff, he has sold a few forceps and alike and got some repeat customers using it.. so.. Ebay has its uses indeed.

Nice one, Brian.

I hope you got a "result" there (the amount you were hoping for, that is) ... and also that it went to someone here on the forum.

Are you hanging up your spurs, then ... or just having a sort-out?

If you have a whole load of stuff, I could be interested in a "job lot"!

As we know, some folk buy at auction (eg, Hilditch) ... and then sell on line (eg, on eBay).

The nice thing about eBay is the amount of exposure that your item gets. Or rather can get, as long as you categorise it properly, and describe it well. It's all about selling after all, so there needs to be a bit of effort.

But (luckily) specialist stuff (such as Brian was selling) will effectively "sell itself", as long as potential buyers get to hear about it. So yes, a post right here on the forum (to alert anyone who may be interested), and then a placement on eBay is probably as good a way as any.

But I believe that Huw may not be happy about links to eBay (if my memory serves me well). Huw?

And, just to be fair, there are alternative auctions (both live and on-line) as well. But I believe that I have mentioned the two that are best known.

Yeah i did wittness that, funny how some people can make a few bucks these days.

No problems there, Adam. That's what buying and selling is all about, be it medical equipment, used cars ... or any other market.

"Private Sector" folk have to make their money somehow, after all. Everyone has to hustle to a certain extent!

Dealers ... selling on margin. Not my sort of people, I'll have to admit. But there again, that's probably why I remain a pauper.

But surely the great thing about live auctions is that you can go along, actually take a look at the stuff, kick a few tyres, chew the fat, toss in a couple of punts, and enjoy a burger and a few cups of tea with your mates! When I used to attend at Malmesbury, for me it was more of a social thing. A day out, if you like!

If I remember rightly, Mike is also into industrial kitchin equipment as well. There are many other candidates, I would have thought:- computer-related stuff, for example.

No not time to hang up my tools yet - having a clear out to fund my love of photography - thats nearly as expencive as "medical" gear!!!!

This may start a whole new thread, debate, world war but Nikon, Canon or other?
