You may restrict your view as follows: On the far right side of the site under the category ���Browse Auctions Within Area���, chose Texas as the region and Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center as the Agency.  You may browse items without creating a login. 

7. Can items be ���held��� for an Agency?

No. Once a school or agency ���tags��� or otherwise requests property, it needs to be picked up within 5 days. Certain large items may require special consideration.

8. What rules apply if the agency no longer needs an item obtained through 泫圖弝け surplus?

Once an item has been acquired from 泫圖弝け, it is considered to be the property of the school or agency picking it up. This property is to be inventoried, controlled, and disposed of the same as items paid for by the school or agency. The TFC form requires Assistance Organizations to use items for a minimum of two years prior to disposal/transfer.

9. Can I be on an ���alert��� list to let me know when a specific type of item becomes available?

Yes.  Set up your profile online at  and list the items you need. An email alert will be sent to you automatically as items available. 

10. My agency needs that item more than they do. Is there a way to get preferential treatment?

If two schools both arrive on the same day and want the same item 泫圖弝け General Services will assist in determining priority. Preference is given to the smaller schools, demonstrated need, and quantity available. A rural clinic would have priority on medical equipment, and specialty equipment that could be used in an existing program would outweigh the desire for holding in reserve in case it can be used.
