scopes

I just bought several, and should have almost 30 by monday. They are different varieties by different makers. Most have twin optics. Most have been used in colleges, others by research labs.

There are several that are higher end scopes, and as soon as the exact condition is known, I will post them as well. Some cost $15,000 or more new.

My Ferengi gets this type of stuff offered to him all the time, so who knows. Last week it was an electron microscope in working condition.
Anyway, if you are interested, I am not making anything on these, all I want to do is cover the shipping costs and the Ferengi's 15% commission.
If you are interested, let me know either here or by email.

somethingfishie@hotmail.com

I will post photos of them as soon as they come in and I get the chance to test each of them.

I have had several emails asking about what type of scopes are goingto be available.

To give you an Idea

There are some regular type scopes that have one eye piece
There are more that have two eye pieces
Then there are more high end scopes that will reflect that in the price
There are even more that are triocular
Then there are some that have cameras attached to them
Then there are even some more that have video feeds from the third ocular

None of these scopes are the cheap “kiddie scopes”, but rugged name brand scopes.

There will also be some that are useable for the average ponder that might have some small defect to them, but they will be steeply discounted. Until I get them in, I wont know what the shape or price. I am hoping to keep the vast majority of the scopes in good shape under $100 if possible. And the single ocular for about 65-70. And that is in good working condition.

Now some of the higher end scopes, and those with extra play toys, those will be more. Just have to see what I can get them for.

As for the Ferengi, I saved his rear on another deal, so he owes me. And yes, it is about money. Money makes the world go round. But as long as I can cover what it costs me on these scopes, I think the hobby, and the fish involved will benefit.

Once I get my website up permanently, I hope to have any new scopes posted on there as well. Once I get physical possession of them, I will post photos of the scopes here, maybe as soon as Monday.

Bear with me though, I will be in DC on a job the first part of November, and have several other large projects locally.

One of the higher end scopes are shown below, a Zeiss photomicIII. Cant be sure of the shape until I get it here are test them. But they are in working order per source.

I would be interested in one. Thank's for offering them to us, now I just need to learn how to use one correctly.
