New to forum New to lasers advice needed for disposal or sales

[David216]

I am a new member to the forum and wanted to inquire with the experts here I have recently bought a surplus lot from a local aerospace lab with some older lasers and have no idea what to do with them they came with some other items that I wanted I had to sign statement of intent when I picked them up and have no use for them I have a lexel 95 and a coherent innova 90 both are complete with power supplies and everything in great condition they can not be exported so am I stuck with these things or is there a use other then burning out my retinas any advice would be helpful ...

If you've got any photos to post I'm sure several people will speak up with the history, what to watch out for, offers, etc. You'd be surprised by the sheer amount of institutional knowledge among this group and how willing they are to share it
