====Pricing====
 
Source for pricing information is the [https://www.gsaadvantage.gov/ U.S. General Services Administration] (GSA). As prices may change at any time, always contact the vendor directly to obtain a price list or quote.
 
''Note'': These are GSA prices, and as such they represent the lowest possible negotiated price. These prices aren't available to any entity outside of the Federal Government, and thus prices for non-government entities will be higher. If anything, they represent the lowest possible negotiated price. Pricing for Darwin and Galileo don't appear to be available at this time.
 
{{ombox
| type      = content
| style    = width: 900px;
| text      = The GSA prices as of January 2014 all reference the product "SAPPHIRE," which is the old name of "LABVANTAGE 6."<ref name="NameChange" /> Therefore, it is not clear if these prices apply to the LABVANTAGE 6 product. As always, contact the vendor for specific details on pricing.
