Prices exclude carriage/insurance if required.

Sometimes less work is needed and so, of course, the charge is less.

Repairs such as to the cracked thread on an ophthalmoscope head can also be carried out. Many things are possible, just ask.

If required, we can collect your instrument, contingent upon it being well packed.

Used instruments bought and sold.
