I recognise the font and the photos. There have been numerous similar (or the same) ebay sellers from Eastern European countries that have appeared
for a while and then shut shop a few months later. I have made a few purchases and have received good product at reasonable prices.

I saw that they're also shipping red P worldwide, which seems a bit suspicious (IIRC a lot of people got their hoses raided when EU companies that
sold that stuff to US customers got busted).

Am i missing something, or is one of his listings NaN3 100g... 100g of extremely toxic, metallic sodium byproduct forming HIGH EXPLOSIVE?
So do I order or just phone the bomb-squad directly to my door?
The only thing that actually bothers me about this is its not labelled as explosive, poor post man... This is why we can't have nice things lol.

An eBay seller since 2015!
History shows a few sales, all within the last year or so?
I wish I got positive feedback like he does. Nobody loves me...

I'm a little suspicious about the red phosphorus; it might be fake.

Red phosphorus, magnesium turnings, and diethyl ether are all on the DEA watch list. You'd have to be insane to order from him. As soon as you're
caught the police would subpoena eBay and they would gladly turn over your transaction history.

Keep in mind he is in the EU. None of these chemicals are on a list in the EU. The only issue with all of them is the high flammability and shipping
must be done according to certain regulations. Diethylether even is OTC where I live. I can go to a drugstore and buy this chemical by the liter.
In the EU the NaN3 is much more an issue. It is marked as T+ and it is a high explosives precursor.
If you are in the US, then I indeed would not order from him. If you are in the EU then I think you can safely order from him, provided that he ships
his stuff in a decent/safe way. I, however, would be reluctant to order NaN3 from an eBay seller.

Red phosphorous is available anywhere in the EU, no problem.
