Selling my chemistry things


Hello everyone, for personal reasons I have to sell mostly everything I own (again).

I have several piece of glassware including 14/20, many reagents including the one listed below. I also have a large collection of old chemistry related books I need to part with. I'd rather have someone pickup all the chems/glass locally, same for the books. However I am open to shipping the books anywhere as long as the person pays for the shipping. It is a "I sell everything" type of deal, so someone getting locally to Quebec could get a very good quote on the lot, and re sell after. If there is people interested I can also take a picture of the books I own. The glass and chems aren't where I currently live, so it can be harder to do.

Edit:
U2U me for details. If no one wants to pay anything I'll give it for free as long as someone pick it up. And if even then no one wants it, it will all be destroyed appropriately. I need to have as little things as possible and as much money possible, however I rather give/sell it to people that want/will use it.

Chems:
bromochloro-5,5-dimethylhydantoin 2kg
Glacial acetic acid 220 ml
Aetic anhydride 500 ml
Ammonium dichromate 500g
Ammonium nitrate 500g
Ammonium persulphate 500g
Benzene 100 ml
Benzoic acid 500g
Benzyl alcohol 100 ml
Benzaldehyde 100 ml
Benzyl chloride 8 ml
Boric acid, 250g
Calcium hypochlorite 2kg
Carbon disulfide 500 ml
Cyclohexane, 400 ml
Dicyandiamide, 500g
Ethylene glycol, 1 L
Guanidine carbonate, 200g
Hydrogen peroxide, 35% 500 ml
Iodine, 250g
lanthanum oxide, 25g
Magnesium sulfate, 2kg
MEK, 400 ml
Nitric acid, 70%, 100 ml
Nitromethane, 70%, 250 ml
Perchloric acid, 70% 100ml
Potassium bromide, 500g
Potassium hydroxide, 100g
Oxone, 1kg
Pyridine, 250 ml
Red phosphorus, 250g
Salicylic acid, 500g
Sodium azide, 150g
Sodium nitrite, 400g
Sodium thiosulfate, 30g
T-butyl alcohol, 200 ml
Tolyl chloride, 100g
Cyclohexanol, 100 ml
Yttrium oxide, 25g
Urea, 500g

It still is my hobby, however I don't have the time, money, or space to practice it , and it is unlikely that will change in the next many years. However all these things are holding me down, for certain priorities in my life right now I need a lot more flexibility. When the situation is better again, I definitely will practice it again.

Sounds complex on the personal front. Sorry to hear about that.

I am on the other side of the world, otherwise I would jump at the chance -- your listing seems like a tidy lab setup.
There are a couple of things however that I might be interested in. I'll send a U2U.

Due to the request of certain people, here are pictures of my current library. I already threw away 2/3 of it half a year ago due to concern of space. I reserve the right to keep certain of these books. Also, please disregards the Pink Floyd book.

EDIT: Due to the very high number of request from international location, I thought it would be appropriate to put a general notice. Shipping internationally things like chemicals is not very easy at all, same goes for glassware. The legality of it is basically null in most case. However, if there is absolutely no interest of local pickup, I will do my best to dispatch appropriately the stuff I have. As a side note, there is many things I don't remember I have, and since these things are not where I currently live, I cannot list. They are in a city that is 1 hr 30 drive from where I live, or 3 hr total.

I had 2 offers to drive by. After these are completed I will resume the sale. I will update at that point. In the meantime, all the chems and equipment are on hold. The books are still available. The total weight for the books is around 24kg.

Just received my books in the mail that I ordered. He is 100% legitimate and might I add that it was pretty fast shipping. Everything arrived as expected and no damage came to the books. This is an awesome chance to start a mini library if you haven't yet. Thank you so much for the books, can't wait to read them all! :D

I am not local, but happy to pay shipping. How much do you want for the following:

Pyridine, 250 ml
Sodium azide, 150g
Sodium nitrite, 400g
MEK, 400 ml
Nitric acid, 70%, 100 ml
Nitromethane, 70%, 250 ml
Perchloric acid, 70% 100ml
Potassium bromide, 500g
Glacial acetic acid 220 ml
Aetic anhydride 500 ml
Ammonium dichromate 500g
Ammonium nitrate 500g
Ammonium persulphate 500g
Benzene 100 ml
Benzoic acid 500g
Benzyl alcohol 100 ml
Benzaldehyde 100 ml
Benzyl chloride 8 ml

If you don't want to sell individual reagents, I'll buy the lot if you'll give a reasonable price, and of course shipping included, theres a fair few things there I need either to replace or purchase. And I'd sooner help out one of the members here than go to a chem company.

How much for the lot?

I'd really like to buy this, and any glass your selling, take the entire lot off you. How much?

Last call for the books.

No international orders on chemicals. Sorry, couldn't find a legal way to ship, and I already have heard of other Canadian getting legal issues from doing so illegally.

How much do you think the postage would be for the 4th edition Vogel's Textbook of practical organic chemistry sent to Australia ? I'm thinking the book weighs at least 1.5-2kg so postage might be a killer.
