Immucor Back-order for ElukitII

[mcharapata]

We've recently received word that Immucor's ElukitII is on backorder until March 17, 2009. We are runnign low ... does anyone have alternate vendor that may supply?

Thanks!

I ordered 2 Elu-Kit II's last Wednesday and received them yesterday(Tues). Did we get lucky? I believe we get them direct shipped from ImmuGamma.

ELU KIT thought:

The recent price increase is outrageous, more than double what we paid a year ago. Now $500 per kit.

We really dislike the bottles recently being changed to opaque. Hard to see the volume within. There was no mention(that I noticed) if this was due to product stability. Probably just cheaper plastic!

There isn't another vendor to my knowledge that has the kit; hence the reason Immucor can charge an outrageous price! Unfortunately, attempting to make a kit from scratch has drawbacks, yet is seeming like a more viable option all the time.
