Methanol, Absolute ethanol (denatured), 2-propanol (isopropanol)
Sodium hydroxide - EKA from Sweden

I have sent EUDs to 3 people in the last month or so.

Also, I have had a lot of people (all from sciencemadness) place orders and then not respond after sending an invoice for payment. (several thousands of dollars of products).

If you shoot me an e-mail again, i'll send you an EUD.

They were ok.
Sent me some I2/KI for redox indicator.
Quick shipping, well packed, and much appreciated.

I am pleased to have some hobbyist support in Australia. Maybe try sending again.

We're in the process of building a new website in order to move away from our exiting cart host (Bigcommerce). In fact, a splash page should be up in the next few days.

Feel free to check with the ATO, ASIC and NICNAS if you require information on our company registration.

Also, there is a facebook page - it's just not a priority.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

I recently purchased 2.5L of 98% sulfuric acid and 100g of sodium metal from argent scientific (adk) and i must say that they are legitimate. I had to pick up from Sydney as the cost of the hazardous shipping was more expensive than the items themselves, but the transaction was very simple (paypal was used), their responses were on time and i had no issues buying from this vendor or picking up from one of two locations i was provided. As an additional bonus, i received a lovely price discount for being a sciencemadness contributor.

I cannot vouch for the supply of any items other than the sulfuric acid and sodium, but would certainly expect other items such as iodine, nitric and hydrochloric acids, alcohols etc. to be just as legitimate and easily procurable. As for filling an EUD to obtain LiAlH4, i have no experience.

The chemicals came well packaged:
The sodium with a purity of 99.8% came in a sealed aluminium canister presumably under vacuum, unless stored under an inert substance such as argon, and placed into styrofoam packaging peanuts. The Sulfuric acid was kept in a large ACS brown jug with complete analysis of it's impurities such as arsenic, cobalt, ammonium, chloride etc. in ppm. max. (which were all very low, it is of great purity), and this was kept inside a cardboard canister with a resealable lid.

I cannot recommend highly enough this vendor. They are completely legitimate and easy to deal with - this has been my first opportunity in finally procuring sulfuric acid (and of such high purity and strength) in Australia after searching for 5 years.

Was a bit skeptical at first as i haven't seen anybody post their experience with them, and their lack of website and facebook page and whatnot, but i hope this testimonial does help clear up any worries for potential buyers. As in this thread: (http://www.sciencemadness.org/talk/viewthread.php?tid=63629#...), the same adk poster has had testimonials of good purchases from reliable sciencemadness contributors such as Tdep.

Also, i'm not a random first time poster - while it's true i have barely posted, i have had my account for several years and hopefully this comes across as a reliable testimonial.

I'm very happy with my purchase.

Thanks for your review- I'm glad you're happy with your purchase.

I still have a fairly large amount of stock to clear - if anyone is keen to buy something, get in touch and we can do a deal!

Thanks,

Hey adk, was just wondering if you're still selling the Sodium.
How much would you sell a 100g block of Sodium to around the Maitland/Newcastle area including postage?

Just want to write a small testimony for Andrew here.
First of all, a little worried as I've never just purchased something off of this site off of someone, might get scammed :O
After some shipping issues totally out of Andrews control, the parcel arrived next day and was packaged extremely safely. The shipping cost isn't there for no reason.
His customer service is brilliant and within 10 minutes of messaging him, he responds with any information you need.

Overall his service was brilliant and if your in need of chemicals, you know who to go to.

Shipping: 10/10
Customer Service: 11/10
Comedic value: 10/10
