sciencelab.com doesn't seem all that promising on first impression and makes me wary of wanting to deal with a headache

I believe many of us in this forum wanted to keep track of reliable and unreliable chemical sources, so thank you for letting us know that this
website is risky.
P.S. I’ve also found an old SM post about this website: www.sciencemadness.org/talk/viewthread.php?tid=8270
Seems like their fraud started a long time ago

Unfortunately, it seems that way.
From what I could gather they have a repetitive history of such antics.
Apparently the site/business went down and then has come back but the matters have not changed?
In either case, given their track record, I'd like to avoid such a hassle and headache from a non-reputable source.
Even if I did order and received my product, I'd question it's authenticity and quality just based upon the reviews.
It is unfortunate but I don't think I'll be able to obtain as I can't find a reputable source.

I take it you hadn't read the post I made about them and discovery.
They don't have a stellar reputation it seems.
A quick google search could answer that as well. I'm little wary of ordering from them.
I'm assuming you called or emailed?

You're not the guy in charge of packaging and shipment, are you?
Take a look at their Turds and Convictions, sorry, Terms and Conditions (https://sciencelab.com/terms-conditions/), item 3 "Delivery and Performance":
| Quote: | | 3.2 Product(s) ordered are considered special order item(s) by Seller because each product is fulfilled based on the customization of Purchaser´s
order. Purchaser´s will be unable to cancel the item(s) for a refund. No refunds will be granted, all disputes will be denied and subject to
additional fees. Seller will consider issuing a store credit or exchanging item(s) for a product of equal or greater value a restocking fee
will likely be applied. Store Credits are valid one (1) year from issue date. |
Wow. If you complain and ask for a refund, they will deny it and charge you for the pleasure of having a refund denied. On the good side, they're
honest about a "Purchaser's" being unable to cancel an order--because no one will hear the messages or read the e-mails.

If I were you, I would stay away from dubious sellers like this. Some other customers might get lucky but it’s not worth the risk and headache.

Sadly, according to Tom from Onyxmet.
He answered my email and stated
"Sorry, it's not allowed to ship this material to the USA."
I'm aware of Synthetika being from Poland as well and restricting it.
There's no restriction for Poland or for the US to export and import.
I did send a follow-up for reasoning but haven't heard a reply.
Could just be due to safety issues I'm assuming as discussed prior but whose to say.

If Onyxmet won't ship NaNO2 to the USA.
I don't think they'll ship KNO2 to the USA either.
Tom stated that they can't ship this material to the USA. I asked for further explanation since I could not find any restrictions.
So Onyxmet would be out of the question it seems as well.

Theirs no real sources I have found so far who ship domestically.
Though I do agree since I did post the information about science lab and the reviews I found.
Not even Onyxmet will import it to the United States.
Even so, the seller can't just state "disputes will be denied"
If the company states a lead time and further so, arrives damage.
A simple phone call to your creditor would more than likely resolve the issue.

licensed organizations. Apparently, nitrite is quite heavily regulated in the USA, much more so than in the EU. Synthetika respects this kind of
regulations. Some chemicals are not shipped to specific countries (there also are a few chemicals, which specifically are not shipped to the
Netherlands and a few other EU-countries, e.g. P2NP). |
Theirs currently no regulation for it in the US as of yet. Chemical companies have just been quite strict in general where they will only ship to
Schools, Labs, Govt, or Companies.
The problem is due to misuse of reagent by normal individuals for unfortunate reasons. |
There is no federal law yet. Hr1442 has passed the house but not the senate. Many states have laws now. Mine is one. Once a number of states put in
restrictions, sales to residential addresses ceased.
