How to acquire glassware in the UK?
Hi,
I am looking for a way to acquire glassware in the UK without being raided. I have found an excellent UK site for glassware (Timstar), but worry that
I will get unwanted attention if I order.
Should I be worried about this, or is eBay the best way to go?
Thanks

stop being paranoid. I have ordered tons of stuff online. One time I bought almost a kg of RP and KI and a kg of NaNO2, all used in drug making (not
my intended purpose) and customs opened it and then just sent it on to me!
glassware isn't really a big deal, what exactly do you intend to buy?

I recommend Laboy glass, from China. It's inexpensive and of reasonable quality. Best yet, the shipping is capped at $15 (about 11 Euros). It takes a
while to arrive, though, as it's shipped from China.
Pyro is right; I wouldn't be worried about buying glassware, unless you live in Texas  (which you obviously don't).

Funny; that's my experience too even though I live in the US.

To the OP: I live in Wales, and have purchased most of my glassware on eBay with no difficulties or issues at all.
