Historical Information
The Purdue University Surplus Store began in the 1960s as an annual auction. Following years of more frequent auctions at a location on North Ninth Street in Lafayette the auction process ended, and a physical location came into being for individuals to purchase out-of-use items. The Surplus Store was relocated to the INOK building in 2004 and then the West Lafayette campus MMDC building in 2015.
