Products & Quality
We guarantee all our products are over 98% pure. Each batch undergoes rigorous testing using advanced analytical techniques including HPLC and GC-MS to verify purity and composition.
Our team of research veterans with 60 years of combined experience maintains strict quality control protocols to ensure consistency across all products.
Laws regarding research chemicals vary significantly between countries, states, and even localities. It is the responsibility of the customer to verify that any product ordered is legal to possess and use in their jurisdiction.
We explicitly state that all products are for research purposes only and not for human consumption. We cannot provide legal advice regarding local regulations.
Yes, certificates of analysis (CoA) are maintained for all product batches and are available upon request for qualified researchers. The CoA includes detailed information about purity, testing methods, and batch specifications.
Please contact our support team if you require a certificate of analysis for your research documentation.
We have a minimum order amount of $100. This helps us maintain our quality standards and efficient shipping processes while keeping our services accessible to researchers.
The order total is calculated before shipping costs, and the free shipping threshold of $200 applies to the subtotal as well.
Payments & Orders
We accept several payment options which are available at checkout. These include various traditional payment methods as well as cryptocurrency options.
All payments are processed manually for security. After placing your order, you'll receive payment instructions via email.
All cryptocurrency payments receive an automatic 10% discount applied at checkout. This discount helps offset transaction fees and supports our commitment to payment flexibility.
The discount is automatically calculated when you select a cryptocurrency payment option during checkout.
We process payments manually to ensure maximum security and to provide personalized service. After placing your order, you'll receive a confirmation email with instructions to contact our team with your preferred payment method.
This process allows us to verify order details and provide immediate payment instructions tailored to your selected method.
Refunds are very uncommon as we mostly award store credit for any issues that may arise. Our focus is on resolving problems to your satisfaction rather than processing refunds.
If you encounter any issues with your order, please contact our support team immediately, and we'll work to find a suitable solution, which typically involves store credit or replacement products.
