Value-bearing instruments verify
$700
The ROI ceiling is about $711.54 before rounding.
A mixed repairable biomedical-test lot contains photo-confirmed medTester 5000, Netech LKG 601, PronK SimCube SC-4, and UPM-DT-10, plus two seller-identified Welch Allyn 9600 Plus units. The open observation has no established bid or bidder count; no blind positive hammer is supported, while about $700 is conditional on representative verification.

Analysis snapshot · Open at observation — observed October 8, 2026. This is an immutable observation, not a live feed. The auction is scheduled to close October 13, 2026. Price, status, close time, and terms may have changed. Check the source auction before bidding.
Verification required before bidding
REVIEW retains a decision-material input that must be resolved before treating any bid as responsible.
REVIEW means material verification is still required before bidding responsibly. This is the current snapshot blind/as-is model ceiling, not a verification-dependent scenario ceiling.
Why this decision
REVIEW: bid and bidder count were not established, so no observed-bid comparison is valid. The $0 blind ceiling rises to about $700 only after value-bearing instruments pass representative verification.
These are verification-dependent scenarios, not current bid limits.

Limited market support — these are modeled assumptions, not a measured market value. Inspect the comparable evidence before relying on the range.
Component-level records establish supportable individual context but not an exact mixed-lot resale distribution; asks, sales, and new-equipment context remain separate.

Requires Verification
The scenarios show potentially workable economics, but the stated verification gate must be resolved before bidding responsibly.
The ROI ceiling is about $711.54 before rounding.
The minimum-profit and ROI requirements leave no positive acquisition allowance.
| Transaction / operating cost | Amount | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Selling Fees | $270 | LotCaliper assumption: 15% of modeled gross resale. |
| Shipping | $350 | LotCaliper pickup, packing, rigging, and inbound-logistics reserve; not a carrier or GSA quote. |
| Testing Repair Reserve | $750 | LotCaliper functional-test and diagnostic reserve. |
| Risk Buffer | $300 | LotCaliper reserve for repair-risk condition, unresolved configuration, functional verification, and specialist resale liquidity. |
| Other | $800 | LotCaliper missing-component, configuration, or recovery reserve; not a seller or service quote. |

Binding: Profit and ROI floors
This is a reseller ceiling, not a prediction of the auction's closing price. Any buyer premium or other unquoted acquisition charge must be deducted before bidding.
The photo-confirmed medTester 5000 is not the seller's generic leak detector, and the photo-confirmed LKG 601 supersedes LK6601 wording. Those corrections help research but do not establish working condition.
With no established observed bid, the page does not invent a $0 bid or zero bidders. Positive acquisition economics depend on the named value-bearing instruments passing representative checks.
Snapshot decision
REVIEWREVIEW: bid and bidder count were not established, so no observed-bid comparison is valid. The $0 blind ceiling rises to about $700 only after value-bearing instruments pass representative verification.
Market support assesses how well the available evidence supports the resale assumption. Exact third-party marketplace records may be omitted when source-use rights are unclear. Each dimension uses the published methodology rubric; a confidence label measures the strength and boundedness of its evidence, not the likelihood of a profitable outcome.
