Can anyone donate or sell cheaply a breast pump?

Hello ladies. I wonder if anyone has a double electric breast pump they're not using out there? I donate milk to babies whose mothers for one reason or another can't breast feed but want, or need their baby to have natural milk. I'm having all sorts of trouble with my current breast pump. A new one is a big expense, particularly as I don't really use it for my own baby so I thought I'd see if there's anyone out there who can help.

I've checked dubizzle etc and whilst there are some cheap ones advertised, the advertisers have not got back to me. It's a good cause - good enough that if necessary, I'll fork out the cash myself, but I just thought I'd ask first. If you are able to help I can assure you I'll pass it on to the next donating mum when I'm done.

I have a Double Electric Pump (Medela) that I am happy to pass on/donate. It was given to me by a friend and used by us both. It works well, but the bag it comes in looks a bit worn. You are welcome to it if you still need it or anyone else wants it.

i have a medela single electric breast pump that i could donate... dont have a double one sorry... let me know if ur still keen Abby_n_Christina, apparently the Medela single electric pump you have cannot be appropriately sterilised between users so I'm very sorry to have to decline your kind offer. I'm sure you'll understand that it's a really important point as I share milk with several babies right now including one premmie still in nicu and can't take any risks. Thank you for your very kind offer, I'm sorry to have to turn it down!

Thanks Abby_n_christina, that'd be better than the one I'm using now ( which is a medela too so I have all the parts!). Unless by chance anyone comes up on here with the offer of a double one ( I pump ALOT!!!), I'll take up your offer very gratefully.
