EinsteinsGarage launches customer exchange



Customer Exchange is a virtual marketplace where users can sell, auction and advertize their surplus and discounted scientific and laboratory equipment to interested buyers in a forum where they are able to negotiate their own deals.

EinsteinsGarage was launched in June of last year as an online marketplace for discounted scientific equipment and supplies, serving the $67 billion worldwide research, U.S healthcare, safety and science education markets. The company is a member of the online community of Alchematrix (alchematrix.com), a wholly owned subsidiary of Fisher Scientific International.

The Customer Exchange is a venue where the value of idle assets and excess inventory can be extracted and shared by the seller and buyer. The concept addresses the needs of sellers looking to rid themselves of excess stock or surplus goods, and the needs of buyers on a tight budget searching for essential supplies and equipment.

In addition, the Exchange provides scientists, researchers, educators and hobbyists with an online auction site offering an array of products from test tubes to spectrophotometers.

As an added feature, the exchange provides sellers of discounted scientific and laboratory equipment with the opportunity to advertize on the site. By becoming a member of the Dealer Network, sellers are given select advertising and marketing space within the exchange.

To date, more than 7,000 items have been sold through EinsteinsGarage.
