A bipartisan group of US lawmakers is introducing legislation to ban the sale of highly concentrated sodium nitrite, a chemical sold by Amazon.com Inc. and some online retailers that has been used by dozens of teenagers and others to kill themselves.

That could be why I can't find any SN whether it be Amazon, Alibaba, etc. I still can't figure out what TIG is

I know it's odd that I just found this article now

There's smth called the Youth Poisoning Protection Act

It's been floating around for a while, and isn't law yet. Amazon stopped selling SN before it was even proposed iirc.

You can still find SN on Alibaba but getting it through customs is a different story.

How does one get this through US customs then? Probably best to pm a response rather than comment a reply

Wouldn't be surprised. It used to be easy to get cyanide too.

You can get anything through customs if you ask them to label it a certain way on the forum.

I won't give exact advice, but as someone who's done international trade a fair bit, most wholesalers are willing to put a specific code down if you ask and you can tell them the charitable misrepresentation is for local tariff reasons. You'd need to do research yourselves on what codes that may be though. You'd want to pick something that makes sense for the product and also the laws of where you are doing importation.

SN purification isn't that complicated. You can apply google to prague powder, check if you have the capacity. I don't think I should link into some chemistry nerd's forum from this forum for obvious reasons. But I found it. You can too.
