Default Potassium Dichromate

Just noticed this link on Ebay:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/200g-Potas...cAAOSwNRdX3Emb

If you use this dichromate you will know how hard it is to buy now - if you are not sitting on a stash grab it whilst you can.

Photographer's Formulary in the US sells it, but will only ship UPS Ground (hazmat reasons, presumably), and won't ship at all without a DEA form, whatever that involves. One can only infer that if the US-DEA is concerned with this stuff then it has some other nefarious uses that us innocents are unaware of. Perhaps that's the reason behind the refusal from France?

Neil,

I posted because I hoped that it could be resolved. However I created an account and have a password buit details of the product are in French which unfortunately I have little knowledge. Perhaps there is a shipping issue? Any help Payral much appreciated.

Thanks Barry - keep us posted.

I find it intersting the restictions on the movement of Dichromates came from The EU, which now has been enforced in the UK, but they are still being posted around France!

Barry - You can't buy it on its own from them: has to be in conjunction with other photographic products, to demonstrate that that's what you want it for. Your order is voided otherwise.
