When funding is tight but your research goals aren’t, the Bargain Bin can help you do more with what you have.

The Bargain Bin offers discounted, fully tested and calibrated tags that are ready to ship now. These units are typically older or inactive models, or tags with modest failures that still meet deployment standards. For teams navigating fixed grants, end‑of‑cycle budgets, or unexpected cost pressures, Bargain Bin inventory can unlock progress without waiting—or overspending.

Why The Bargain Bin Makes Sense For Budget‑Constrained Projects

Customers often turn to the Bargain Bin when they need to:

• Stretch limited funding without sacrificing deployment timelines
• Increase sample size within an existing budget
• Advance a project now instead of waiting for future funding cycles
• The Bargin Bin offers more flexibility—whether that’s tagging more animals, filling gaps in a study, or keeping a project moving forward despite financial constraints.
