As I mentioned in the May meeting, I bought several (thirty actaully) stirbars off of e-bay. When I receive them, I think I will keep a whole set for myself; so below is what I (should) have extra, as well as the price I'm asking for each:
4 - Egg-Shaped Stir Bars (2.0 cm x 0.8 cm) @ $1.00 each
4 - Egg-Shaped Stir Bars (2.5 cm x 0.9 cm) @ $2.50 each
4 - Egg-Shaped Stir Bars (3.0 cm x 1.0 cm) @ $3.00 each
4 - Egg-Shaped Stir Bars (3.5 cm x 1.3 cm) @ $3.50 each
4 - Egg-Shaped Stir Bars (4.0 cm x 1.5 cm) @ $4.00 each
4 - Egg-Shaped Stir Bars (5.0 cm x 1.6 cm) @ $5.00 each
I have no experience with egg-shaped stirbars; but from what I have read, they are supposed to be quieter. Below is the e-bay listing if you want more info:

I also spoke to a seller on e-bay, and set up a (potential) deal for new Pyrex (brand) 4000 mL flasks. He did not give a price break for a bulk order, but did say they would cover shipping, which is like a decent pricebreak as shipping was going to be $19 for one flask. Anyway, if we order 10 flasks, we can (supposedly) get them at $49.00 apeice (I will try to insure the shipment, so there might be a dollar or two added to that price). So I would like input. Is this a decent deal (given they are Pyrex brand and new)? Is anybody interested? Below is the listing for those:
