I used to order from him when the prices were bareable. I can't believe how hight the prices have become. They used to be competitive.

those prices almost put KNO3.com prices in the reasonable bracket!

Only kidding, they both quote stupid prices.

Well, seems I've seen this page before. It's an american store, forgot the name. (If not, I'm sorry. At least it looks like it). Since they said would not be able to ship the stuff to Estonia, I lost my interest. Very likely just somebody orders the stuff from america to you plus profit of course... :)

Yes, as I said before, it is a german reseller. I live in germany, too and he has a "main site" in german.

I think i?ll contact him and ask him why he is such a f***** rip-off person....

Am i missing something? Compare the prices on these two. Either he has no idea of currency conversion or then he is stupid. The first one in updated more recently than the 2nd one.

that's actually quite funny. it might be to do with international shipping though! the prices are still a little on the steep side.

5Kg KClO4 for only 70? ?! But it seems to me that the shipping costs are very expensive...

Or is this price for ONE Kilo if it... ?!

EDIT: I had a closer look, seems soooo cheap everything, but the shipping... argh

Yes that's the problem, shippingcharges are insane.
And that's why a group order would be better, if you can spread the shippingcharges over let's say 10 people.

But he lives in Estonia so shippingcosts should be far less, wish a company like that
existed in Holland :( .
