selling vials

I have 4 vials same donor in storage at fairfax that I don't need. Can these be sold to someone else or will you buy back? What are your policies regarding this?

    We have two options that may work for you: Transfer of Ownership or Vial Buy Back.

    What is a Transfer of Ownership?

    Patients who have Fairfax Cryobank semen samples stored onsite with Fairfax Cryobank are able to transfer their samples into another person’s name for use by participating in what we call a Transfer of Ownership. This allows Fairfax Cryobank to properly track the owners of our semen samples to ensure that we are able to closely monitor the number of Family Units for each donor. This also allows us to create a letter for a second parent adoption for our patients as are commonly requested. In addition, new owners of vials will receive medical updates as their contact information is now in our system.
    For more information on Transfer of Ownership, please visit our website http://www.fairfaxcryobank.com/transferownership.shtml


    VIAL BUY BACK-- a program Fairfax Cryobank started in 1990
    You may return any unused specimens that were purchased at regular prices and have never left the Fairfax Cryobank facility and receive half the original purchase price back.
    For more information about the Vial Buy Back, please visit our website http://www.fairfaxcryobank.com/Vialbuystorebuyback.shtml#BUYBACK

    If you have additional questions about either of these programs, please contact our client services department at 800-338-8407.
