[time-nuts] Re: MHM2010 maser for sale!!!!

[Bob kb8tq]

Hi

I wonder if they take Master Card? :)

That’s right around 3X the price of a brand new passive Maser ( and
yes a passive and active Maser  are very different beasts ….), so indeed 
“A bit costly”. Relative to the price of that unit when it was new, not a 
nutty listing price from a dealer. As with any piece of surplus, listing and 
sell prices just might be a bit different from each other …. or not … 

One would wonder about a whole lot of grubby details on a unit with 
that sort of price tag. There are chunks of hardware in there that most 
certainly do wear out in normal use. They can be replaced, but at that 
price, I certainly would not expect to need to ….. Any bets on how 
far gone the pumps are? …. hmmm …..

Yes you could call them up and ask a bunch of questions. Unless they 
have a history of “ten cents on the dollar works for us” sort of deals, I
wouldn’t bother ….. ( Yes, twenty or thirty cents might still put it in reach
for some ….).
