Pentaerythritol, and a Supplier
There is a Japanese reagent store on eBay that lists many useful items, located here:
http://myworld.ebay.com/reagent_shop/?_trksid=p4340.l2559
I was wondering if anyone here has had any experience with them and if they are of any use. Specifically I am looking to buy 500g of pentaerythritol,
located here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pentaerythritol-500g-Laboratory-Reag...
As far as I know it's not listed as a drug precursor so there shouldn't be any problems with shipping, although one of the possible uses of PE may
arouse suspicion. Has anyone here purchased similar items online?

I just bought a 500g bottle of Hydroxylamine HCl from them. Item arrived in an timely manor considering it came half way around the world. Auction
says Tokyo, Japan but mine actually came from South Korea. Hope this helps as I haven't used any of the reagent yet. My heat treating oven arrived
damaged and I'm still waiting for the replacement.

Thanks, good to hear that the store seems to be a viable source. I'll definitely start buying things from there as they sell lots of rare organic
compounds. Did your reagent come in a bottle as the pictures suggest?
Now I just need to read up on import regulations in my country. As far as I can tell PE isn't listed as a restricted precursor...

The said reagent increased to 70$ few days ago:

I never asked for this.
