We all know that the internet is a fantastic place to shop. DVDs, home furnishings, books, groceries, shoes and clothing, and even tonight’s curry and chips delivered straight to your door – these days pretty much anything can be bought online, and that certainly includes research chemicals. With the current sad state of the economy, high street retail sales have taken a tumble across almost all sectors, but online retail sales are another story. The online economy has gone from strength to strength, growing by 15% in the last few years.

There are many reasons to buy research chemicals online. When buying items from the internet, it’s easy to compare prices across multiple different stores. You don’t have to trek across town from shop to shop only to find out that the first one you went to had the best prices and you have to go all the way back.

That’s assuming there are shops selling what you want in your local area, which may not be the case. If you were looking for research chemicals in Leeds, where we are based, you wouldn’t have very many options. There are very few places selling research chemicals in Leeds or anywhere else in the UK for that matter. Looking online gives you access to retailers and wholesalers across the country no matter where you are in the UK and certain other countries.

We encourage our customers to shop around before buying from us, because we’re confident that our prices are very competitive, especially for the quality of product we sell.

Buying online is great. It gives you a huge choice of retailers and access to a much greater range than you otherwise might, even if you live in London or another big city. You can shop whenever you like, day or night, weekday or weekend, and have the product delivered right to your home. It’s quick, it’s simple, and shopping for research chemicals (or anything else) online is certainly convenient.

However, there is a downside. How can you be sure you can trust a company you’ve found online? Putting up a website and a simple ecommerce system is child’s play these days, and a technically savvy person can set up a fairly professional looking website in a couple of days. Before you hand over your credit card, it’s worth making sure the site you’re looking at represents a real company, not some fly-by-night outfit that might be using your desire to buy 5-iai to get hold of your VISA card number for their own purposes.

One way you can make sure you’re dealing with a real, established research chemicals company is to choose one with a real physical address. You can pick up and pay for your research chemicals in Leeds at our office if you’re in the local area, although don’t worry – we are more than happy to send our products out by post, to anywhere in the UK and almost anywhere in the world. We are a real company with a real office and a real trading history, so you can buy 5-iai or anything else from us with confidence.

Chemical experimentation should be done in a rigorous way. That means you need to use the established empirical methods to control as many external factors as possible, keeping movement in all the variables to a minimum (expect the one you are testing on of course). Timings need to be exact and intervals between experimental actions kept constant.

Unfortunately, sometimes the unexpected happens. A jar is dropped or a beaker gets knocked off the table, and all of a sudden your supply of research chemicals is dangerously low halfway through an experiment. Instead of writing all your hard work on that experiment and throwing away the data you’ve already collected, you can use our express delivery service to buy 5-iai or anything else you need, knowing it will be delivered fast.

If you order your research chemicals before noon any day of the working week, we’ll get it despatched in the post the very same day. Orders are sent out using Royal Mail’s Recorded Delivery service as standard. For most addresses in mainland UK (excluding the Scottish Highlands) that means the package containing your research chemicals will be delivered the next day, unless you order on a Friday, in which case it’ll probably be Monday before the order arrives.

If you need to get your order delivered in a hurry, we also offer despatch by Royal Mail Special Delivery for a small extra charge. That means the package is guaranteed to arrive before 1pm on the next day, even if that day happens to be a Saturday. We can also arrange Sunday deliveries if necessary. It doesn’t matter where you are in the UK. We can get what you need to your door fast.

Before you buy research chemicals it is extremely important to be absolutely sure that you’ll be getting exactly what you pay for. No experiment can provide reliable results if you’re not sure what’s going into it, and the sad truth is that some places where you can buy research chemicals are selling substances that really are not 100% pure.

Sometimes the intention is good, but the laboratory equipment needed to make pure, clean chemical substances of any kind is complex and expensive to set up and not everyone has the right tools for the job. And of course, not everyone has the know-how to make the processes work properly – as any of our customers will understand, research chemistry requires a high degree of skill and background knowledge. We keep production standards tightly controlled, so you can be sure that if you buy research chemicals from us, that’s what you’ll get delivered.

5-iai is sometimes used as a ‘legal high‘, although it cannot legally be sold for human consumption. It’s not illegal to own – all of the research chemicals we sell are entirely legal to own and sell for purposes other than human consumption – but because some of the people selling it are doing so from a ‘legal high’ standpoint, they will some times cut it or allow it to be contaminated with other substances.

Unwary people buying 5-iai from less reputable sources may find it contains things like MPDV. This is illegal, and it means that whether they know it or not, they are in possession of a controlled substance and liable to prosecution.

Research Chemicals 4u is a reputable company. Unlike some suppliers of research chemicals, we go to great lengths to ensure all our products maintain an extremely high level of purity. Other companies selling research chemicals might not be so careful. Their products may suffer from systematic accidental contamination from the manufacturing process – making pure chemicals is notoriously difficult and you should always ensure the suppliers you choose are true professionals with access to the right laboratory equipment and the right expertise.

Not every chemical supplier is entirely ethical either. In the past, some have been found to deliberately water down their products with inert substances that look similar to the pure substance. It’s a quick and dirty way of making more money from the same amount of research chemicals. We never do this. All our products are guaranteed at least 99% pure, and are not accidentally contaminated, poorly produced, or deliberately cut with anything.

We also offer weight guarantees. Gram for gram, you get exactly the research chemicals you pay for. We won’t make excuses about inaccurate weighing scales at our end of the line, or tell you that yours are at fault when they are just fine. If you order 1g of research chemicals from us, 1g is what you’ll get. No less.

Because we are an established business with a real premises as well as this online shop, you can be sure that any complaints you have will be addressed – not that we think you’ll have any. We at Research Chemicals 4u are proud of our extremely high number of satisfied customers.

Care should be taken when sending sensitive items like research chemicals through the post. Not only are these items powders that can be easily split and spoiled, but they are also controversial, even though we don’t sell them for human consumption. That would be illegal, because although it’s perfectly legal to sell, own and buy 5-iai or benzo fury for use as research chemicals, selling or advertising them as drugs isn’t.

When you buy 5-iai or any other product through this website, rest assured that we do consider delivery very carefully indeed. We are experienced professionals – there will be no suspicious packages leaking white powder arriving at your door, or worse, withheld by the post office and passed on to the authorities. While nothing we sell is illegal to own or send through the mail, embarrassment and complications are always best avoided.

First of all, our weights and measures are exact. We do not undersell, so the amount of research chemicals you order is the amount you get. That quantity is packaged up safely and securely in a strong, tidy way. Then we pop the order in a discreet postal bag or box. Your postman won’t know what is in the parcel or who it’s from and neither will your neighbours.

We only despatch goods using Royal Mail’s recorded services, either standard signed-for or Special Delivery. That means there is a record of both despatch and delivery for our peace of mind and yours. Once the order has been handed to Royal Mail, we’ll give you a tracking number so you can keep an eye on its progress.

At Research Chemicals 4U we’re happy to accept orders from overseas if it’s legal for us to do so. Unfortunately, because the substances we sell are often controversial and subject to special regulations in some countries, we can’t let you buy 5-iai through our website from certain countries. If you live in New Zealand, Sweden, Israel, or the United States, then we are afraid we can’t help you. If you do place an order from one of these countries, we’ll refund your money immediately but can’t send you any of the research chemicals in our range. We’re really sorry about that, but it’s not our choice.

However, that list of countries is short and there still a lot of the world that’s free to buy 5-iai and benzo fury or anything else listed as available on this site. While we can’t guarantee that packages will clear customs in your country without problems, we’ll do everything we legally can to make sure you get the research chemicals you ordered (and get them promptly and without hassle) by packaging discreetly and filling in customs declarations with care.

However, if problems do occur, the responsibility of resolving those problems is yours. Please read our Terms and Conditions before placing an order – you must accept them if you want to buy plant food or any other substance from us. Because we can’t be familiar with the varying laws and regulations in every country, it’s up to you to make sure you can legally import, own, and use anything you buy online.

Nothing we sell on this website is a controlled substance, and every product can be legally bought and sold as research chemicals. You can’t legally buy 5-iai for human consumption – everything on Research Chemicals 4U is sold for research, although some substances can also be used as plant food and pond cleaners, among other things.

There is no legal limit on the quantity of benzo fury you can own, or on any other product advertised on this site. You can own, buy, and sell as much as you want, as long as it isn’t for human consumption. We don’t place upper limits on how much you can buy from us – although for very large orders we reserve the right to check payment has been safely received before despatching any research chemicals to you. Naturally, we also reserve the right to refuse orders in exceptional circumstances.

If you do want to place a large order, we recommend paying the extra money for Royal Mail Special Delivery. This service is much safer and packages are guaranteed against loss or damage up to a fairly generous value. Once your order has left us, we’ll have proof of despatch and a tracking number for you, but unfortunately we can’t accept responsibility for anything that gets lost in the post. You are welcome to place a claim with Royal Mail in the unlikely event the package doesn’t arrive. Special Delivery is also an extremely fast delivery method no matter where you are in the UK, from central London to the remotest of Scottish Islands.

If you’re a regular customer at Research Chemicals 4U (and if you’re not, we hope you will be one day), please consider sharing our website with your friends. We provide links to social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook so you cannot only help us get more publicity and generate more customers, but also help yourself get up to date information about the research chemicals we offer for sale.

You can also do us a favour by adding this site to your list of social bookmarks on Digg or StumbleUpon. If those communities aren’t your cup of tea, there are dozens of others where a couple of clicks can give us a little boost and help anyone else looking to buy 5-iai to find a reliable supplier of high quality, pure research chemicals. Like us on Facebook and see what your friends think, or if you’re a Gmail user, try out the new Google Buzz social media service and post a link to our site.

Following us on Twitter is a great way to keep track of what’s going on in the world of research chemicals. In the next few months we plan to add exciting new products to our range, including MDAI and dimethocaine. Twitter is the fastest and most convenient way we can let you know when these research chemicals become available for purchase. You can be the first to get your hands on our new product range, which will be just as high in quality and as well manufactured as the current selection.

As any avid home experimenter and all businesses that sell or buy research chemicals know, regulations in this field change fast. New laws come into being and old ones vanish, and what’s legal and what isn’t changes around all the time. We make it our business to know exactly what’s going on in the regulations that govern research chemicals from day to day. You can buy research 5-iai from this site knowing that it’s fully legal to own. Note that we don’t sell anything intended for human consumption, although there are plenty of other reasons to buy 5-iai.

At the moment, our range of research chemicals is quite small. Everything in it is of the highest possible quality and purity and we’re more than happy with those products, but over the coming months we aim to add lots more to the site. Soon, we hope to be able to offer MDAI, NRG-3 and dimethocaine, with 5-iai and plant food already available.

While we are understandably keen to add new products to the range, we’re not rushing the process. Instead we’re making sure that we can source these new items at a sufficiently high quality to please our pickiest customers. We won’t sell substandard research chemicals of any kind, so bear with us while all the checks are made and details hammered out.

If you’d like to stay right up to date with our product range and be the first to know about any special offers that we choose to make, you can follow Research Chemicals 4U on Twitter. It’s quick, convenient, and costs you nothing at all.
