Can it be shipped with haz mat considerations?

Just curious as shipping ANY chemical (perfume!) is significantly restricted since 9-11.

ditto. Most people will sell it locally w/o you needing certification. I have it and not one person has ever asked for it.

Those little 14oz can usually run between $15 & $25 ea. at least from what I have come across on CL here on the west coast.

I lucked out one time at an estate sale, got one can for a $1.

here is a few CL I came across

http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/for/2333032828.html

here is $12 a lb
http://reno.craigslist.org/pts/2329711852.html

A life time supply @ $13.79 a lb
http://reno.craigslist.org/for/2327426807.html

some Johnsons Freeze 12 @ $7.35 a lb
http://portland.craigslist.org/clk/pts/2327032694.html

here is the best deal @ $10 a lb
http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/for/2333032828.html


The stuff is still available, last week I was checking on CL, and saw some in So Cal for a little over $7 for the R-12.

sometimes you can run across some available in recovery tanks, but then don`t know if it has been contaminated with some other oil or freon.
