I placed an order on the first of June having that in mind and called them to say hello today as the order was supposed to be dispatched in 3-4 days.
Apparently it's going out tomorrow so I can confirm what you said in a very polite way. They are a bit messy :)


Ok, so an update. These guys are the worst. Back in September I inquired again about three missing items: Chlorobenzene, nitrotoluene and scalpels.

The chlorobenzene was back in stock, they didnt carry anymore the scalpels I ordered (and would never have contacted me if I hadnt done it) and only had nitrotoluene in 1 liter when I'd need at most 150ml.

Today I wrote asking to send the items they had, hoping they would have received or repackaged nitrotoluene in 100ml bottles.

I got an answer asking for my IBAN...

So, I'm not sure what's still missing or is missing again from their inventory but this is what I know for sure about Laboratoriumdiscounter.nl:

Except from straight out thieves, they are the worst that I know.
If you dont see your order arriving, they will certainly *not* contact you to tell you that they are out of stock on this or that item.
Their online catalogue is bullshit, it's a whole listing but they seem to only have a tiny fraction of what they claim.
3 months to get chlorobenzene ? 6 and counting for nitrotoluene ?
And when you call, "it's in another warehouse, we'll ship tomorrow".

Efff them.

Seattle Pottery is fantastic! I had the pleasure of shopping there in-person several years ago with two other forum members. They were quite patient in dealing with three young men who clearly knew nothing about pottery and were interested in lots of random chemicals. Though, one of the employees quipped, rather gruffly, "enjoy your fireworks" as we were leaving the store!

10 lbs of nice white fairly fine KNO3 arrived today. >$34 total shipping and all.

From Wal-Mart online, which is where I got my last order of ten pounds about a year and a half ago. Hazmat shipping would be more than that I think.

I also noticed that they sell 100gms of KI for right at $20.

Who knew Wally-World could be so helpful.

Arkoma,

I agree with you on Wally World.

Some examples:

Acids: formic, glacial acetic, hydrochloric, nitric, sulfuric
Nitrates: calcium, potassium
Ammonium sulfate
Potassium permanganate
Sodium dichromate


There are others but these would be of the most interest to me. :D

Yesterday I stopped in at one of the laboratories that I use to drop off some samples. To my surprise and delight they gifted me 2.5 L of 70% nitric acid! They were having a clean up and found an unopened bottle about 20 years old, which they do not have a use for.

I've used this seller for some of the more Interesting small samples for my element collection.

50g europium oxide

https://www.bonanza.com/users/49857692/profile
New to this seller, but it came fast. They have some more oxides and fluorides of interesting elements.

All in all, not a very big pile of stuff, when in the hand all at once. But they weren't exactly common materials. I do find some interesting things on bonanza. Can still find uranium minerals for sale from Steve @ https://www.bonanza.com/booths/Rockhound_Steve super nice guy. I've not had bad interactions yet on this site. Happy hunting for your materials or collectibles

Got 1 kg of shellac to mill. That's only for the balefire green !
Part of every summer several friends gather in a village with a quarry. I'm expected to be visible but not audible so I'm a bit limited in my artefact choices ;)
