LabDirect still good to order from?
I’ve ordered from LabDirect LLC before with good success, but not in the last couple years. When I logged in their website had changed and looks
incomplete. I read online they were being investigated by several government agencies around May 2022. Are they still up and running and safe to order
from? I don’t want to be raided by police.

Pretty sure they’re dead. I was in close correspondence with a vendor from their website. Purchased a lot of stuff from them in 21. Then one day
(around the date they were being investigated), they went dark. I haven’t heard back from him since. So I think they’re out of business.

Their website is still up, and they last posted to here in September, advertising a sale on nitric acid: https://www.sciencemadness.org/whisper/viewthread.php?tid=15...

Seems very expensive overall but they're the only ones selling very high concentration H2O2 in miniature amounts.
60ml is plenty enough for me. I might place an order.
Edit: ahhh, crap... thought they were in Europe...

You really think any seller in Europe would advertise > 12% hydrogen peroxide?

Phenylacetone, BMK, PMK etc.
Some of these websites seem too good to be true and probably are honeypots but some have been posted here on SM and seem to be "reliable".
