I was wondering whether @Paul Howell was saying that if he only had 4 enlargers, he could make room for a 5th?

Well I wish had room for a 5th, I keep my D3 up at all time then switch between the other 3. Truth be said, the B22 is likely a better unit in terms of build quality and the Metopa I have set up at the moment, what the Metopa has is the rangefinder focus. If the store lists it again I hope someone bids on it, too nice of a enlarger to wind up in the dumpster.

Just one 4"x5" color head enlarger is enough for me. Chromega Dichroic II

I usually keep 2 enlargers up as I can work on 2 negatives at a time. 4X5 or 6X9 on the D3 and 35 and 6X6 on the other. I shift between the negatives as test strips and test prints are drying If I could have one enlarger it would be the D3. I do have a LP 6700 with a color head, as I no longer print color I find that VC filters work just as well me as does the color head. There is LP6700 VC head on the same site, does not the power supply or i would have bid on it.

There's a "contact seller" form on that auction site, so I imagine if anyone wanted to buy it, they could ask through that. It's a nice selection of stuff for someone starting up a home darkroom.

It has been relisted, same price, but pick up only. Goodwill is a not for profit that own thrift stores, each store belongs to a site operated by one of the stores that lists all merchandise from all of the participating stores. As the selling store is in Santa Barbara or Ventura I'm surprised that it was not sold though the storefront.

It likely will if no one buys it through the auction site. The reason it's on there is in hope of getting a higher price.
