18 Boxes of New Hollister Ostomy Supplies for $375

This topic is about someone selling extra medical supplies, specifically Hollister skin barriers and drainable pouches, at a discounted price. These supplies were originally intended for a man who no longer needs them after his colostomy was reversed. The seller is trying to cover some medical expenses by selling these items. Here are some helpful points to consider:

1. The seller is offering 18 new, unopened boxes of Hollister 14908 Skin Barriers and 9 new, unopened boxes of Hollister 18003 Drainable Pouches. The retail value of these items is $1,378.53, but they are being sold for $375.

2. The supplies were continuously shipped by the supplier even after they were no longer needed, leading to an excess. The seller is now trying to sell them to help with the cost of new medications that are not covered by insurance.

3. It's important to clarify how these supplies were obtained, especially to reassure potential buyers. This is because there is increased scrutiny on the resale of medical supplies that were originally funded by Medicare.

4. If selling is not an option, consider donating the unused ostomy products. However, be aware that some charities, like Oxfam in the UK, do not accept medical supply returns. If donations are not accepted, offering them for free with the buyer covering postage costs is another alternative that has been suggested by others.
