Title: Suggestions for finding a lab that will produce hard to find chemicals
Post by: RcHunter on January 11, 2013, 11:04 pm
I think the thread title sums up what I wanting. Not looking for scheduled but analog maybe how do I find lab that will make what I want and ship to the USA?

Honestly, for a lab to do a custom synth just for you, you'd have to be kicking down some big bucks, unless you want kilos of this chemical, it's probably more cost effective to find it already synthed.

^ This is spot on. There was a thread I read about some guy asking a lab to synth him some wild and wonderful nootropics and the cost was in the $1000's. Fair enough if you've got it kicking about you could ask some RC companies who they source from or if they are willing to put the feelers out for you to find a lab that can help you. Failing that you could take the $1000's you were going to spend on synthing and get an education in organic chemistry and buy some lab equipment. Teach a man to fish and all that.

This is a good idea - I wish I had paid more attention in organic chem class all those years ago! Actually did pay attention, organic is just a Bitch.

I can offer advice but not sources.  This is real easy to get done but depending on what it is you will have very high minimums, hard to get anything less than 1kg unless its a very complex compound.  Oh yeah and CHINA CHINA CHINA

I am thinking of writing a guide about how to do this kind of thing, sourcing chemicals, logistics of making illicit chemistry money.  Anyone interested?  Similar price point and length as my other guides.

I'm interested, but not for the price of your other guides. :/ I don't have that kind of cash flow at the moment.
