The typical inventory includes office and residence hall furniture, lab equipment and supplies, vehicles, computers, farm equipment, books and much more. Age or condition of the inventory is dependent on several factors. The MSU Surplus Store sells new, old and antique items; older items may have been seldom used or well-used.
