Where do you guys get your glass from?
Hey,
I'm rather new to this.
The glassware I have was bought mostly from Chinese auction sites, but I wanted to know where you get yours from. It's hard for me to tell what is
considered a 'good price', but if you know of good sources, I would love to hear about them.
I am located in Europe, btw.
I would love to hear your input!

Mostly through AliExpress.
Please remember: "Filtrate" is not a verb.
Write up your lab reports the way your instructor wants them, not the way your ex-instructor wants them.

Ebay.
Here you can find the common Chinese cheaper glassware as well as some higher quality stuff.
There is also used high quality, good brand glassware available sometimes.

For reaction vessels dont skimp out. Get PyrexCorning or Marienfeld or another good brand for your reaction and crystallization vessels, youre not
going to want those things to break because of temp difference when youve got it full of a nitrate ester dissolved in a solvent on heating.

Pretty much everything from ebay.
It is not high quality, but I am usually not doing anything that will stress the glass too much.
The exception is beakers. No matter where I get them from, shipping always doubles the price. Most of my beakers are repurposed coffee plungers. The
glass is a bit thin, but they are ok. And I like the tall proportions.
