Homebrew PCBs

Hi

Are you sure that it requires a hazardous chemical license to ship Ferric Chloride (power)?  I have ordered and received same from Marlin Jones, Mouser, etc.  I find it difficult to believe that standard electronics component retailers have such a license.   

If anyone knows different, please post a correction.  If the case is true as I believe it too be; it would make the sale of Steve's stock much easier to sell.

Regards

  I bought some Ferric Chloride from a friend a few years ago for PCB
  etching, I've decided to switch to another etchant due to the
  staining.

  I have seven double-bagged one pound bags of it. I paid $7 each for
  them, I'd be happy to get $5 each for them, or $25 if you buy all
  7.

  Google for info on using Ferric Chloride.

  I cannot ship them anywhere as I don't have a hazardous chemicals
  license. So you'll have to pick up.

  Thanks,
  Steve Greenfield
