This RaySafe 452-family meter has two visible interchangeable lids, strongly supporting a Full configuration, but the exact part number, calibration-matched lid pairing, current calibration, battery health, and radiation response are not established. With no preserved auction bid, the $750 blind ceiling supports REVIEW only.

Why this decision
REVIEW: the $750 blind ceiling is defensible only on a $2,500 visual-only resale basis and cannot be compared with an invented auction price; exact version, lid pairing, calibration, and functional evidence require verification.

The September 1, 2026 research record does not preserve a reliable immutable bid or scheduled close. This page preserves the observed evidence without inventing a live auction state.
A current-looking specialist radiation meter still depends on exact model, lid configuration, calibration pairing, battery, and measurement evidence.

The original CALIBRATED state exceeded the preserved photo evidence. The page's dated narrative already says current calibration of this meter and lid pair is unproven.

Identity confidence: Medium High
The body label is visually consistent with RaySafe 452 branding and supplied photographs show one 452-family meter.

Confirmed · High confidence
One lid is mounted on the meter and a second lid is visible in fitted foam packaging.

Possible · Medium High confidence
Two lids strongly support the Full configuration, but labels are not readable enough to confirm the exact part number or lid types.

Not established · no source evidence establishes presence or absence
The two lids are visible, but their pairing, calibration dates, and accessory completeness are not established.

Requires Verification
The scenarios show potentially workable economics, but the stated verification gate must be resolved before bidding responsibly.
The $750 blind ceiling assumes two visible lids but no confirmed Full part number, matched calibration, function, or current calibration premium.
| Transaction / operating cost | Amount | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Selling Fees | $375 | LotCaliper assumption: 15% of conservative gross resale. |
| Shipping | $75 | LotCaliper pickup, protective packing, and shipping reserve. |
| Testing Repair Reserve | $400 | LotCaliper functional check, software communication, and calibration-service reserve; not a service quote. |
| Other | $150 | LotCaliper battery, accessory, and lid-pairing reserve. |
| Risk Buffer | $125 | Version, calibration, battery, function, and auction-state uncertainty reserve. |
Profit floor: $750
ROI floor: $885
Binding: Profit floor
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 two visible lids are meaningful positive configuration evidence. They do not justify silently assigning manufacturer kit 5082301 or treating either lid as calibration-matched without readable labels or records.
The model discounts current tested-used, government-procurement, and new-kit context because the auction unit has no demonstrated startup, battery, radiation response, or current calibration.
Snapshot decision
REVIEWREVIEW: the $750 blind ceiling is defensible only on a $2,500 visual-only resale basis and cannot be compared with an invented auction price; exact version, lid pairing, calibration, and functional evidence require 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.
High · Model Variant Unresolved
The narrower Ambient and Air Kerma variants have different functionality.
High · Calibration Pairing Unverified
RaySafe calibrates the instrument with its specific lids.
