[Andrew O'Neill]

Anybody ever purchase silver nitrate on Amazon? If so, were you satisfied with it? Thanks!

The vendor is Chemsavers--I've used them for wet plate chems and they're excellent.

Thanks Barry.

Hi Andrew,
That price is slightly more than Bostick & Sullivan's current price, but shipping to BC might be a difference.

Unfortunately, B&S won't ship internationally.

This is where Point Roberts may be useful. I've started using a post box service there to get things that won't get to Burnaby... and it's a fun trip on Translink out to Point Bob.

I'd never heard of Pt. Roberts, what a strange place! Looks like it could be useful for BC photographers ordering supplies from the US.

"Point Bob" is the USA's most exclusive "gated community" .

It may be the only place in the USA that sells gasoline by the litre.

I live 10-15 minutes away from the border crossing, and visit regularly!

It's extraordinarily useful for this purpose, and for our friendly southern neighbours who won't ship up here, even with us willing to pay the price difference.

Blaine, WA is more convenient for me... but I hate sitting in line.

I bought my silver nitrate in Canada from westlab.com which was the best option I could find. The price for 25 g is astronomical, but I bought 100 g so paid something like 2.90/gram. Translated to CAD you'd be paying about 1.83/gram from that Amazon seller so definitely cheaper, if they will ship to you. They won't ship to my location unfortunately.

If you do go with them please let us know how it turns out.

I went through Nymoc (whom I usually get other chems from). They charged 1.70/g for 100.

I just purchased some silver nitrate from Artcraft Chemical. I paid $34.00 for thirty grams. 100 grams is $87.00 and half pound is about $.75/gram very cheap compared to B&S. I get most of my chemicals from them and the quality, packing and shipping are excellent...no complaints.
