+ 1 Need help getting gear tested...
ad
This will be my first time getting gear tested, and I plan on using Lab4tox in Poland. Does anyone have any experience shipping oils overseas? I'm hesitant to send because the USPS request that you fill out a customs form stating what is in the package. There is a long list of items that are prohibited and I fill like the name, "LAB4TOX", really limits what I could possibly be sending that's not on the prohibited list. I'm also open to other reputable testing sources. I will share results once I get them back. Thank you in advance.

On their website it's simply:
WPT SA
ul. Danish 9
54-427 Wrocław
They also have a "subtitle": Laboratory of Toxicological Research
use that, but write it in Polish: " Laboratorium Badań Toksykologicznych"
Laboratorium Badań Toksykologicznych
WPT SA
ul. Danish 9
54-427 Wrocław
Use marketing sample as to what is being shipped. (perfume, skin moisturizer, bath salt, dog care product, facial scrub, etc)
Thank you for taking the time to check that out. This is the address they sent to me when they answered the first email.
Lab4Tox
WPT, Budynek Delta, piętro II, pok. 217
ul. Duńska 9, 54-427 Wrocław
I looked up Janoshik as someone had suggested and he answers emails asap. I'm going to give Janoshik a shot with three blind samples. I will post the results along with my experience in the future.
Wait, you actually think the post office will read your forum?
Actually, yes. They asked what was in the package and started looking up the address before telling me to fill out a customs form. I told them that I had no clue because I was just the messenger. I believe the address "Lab4tox" must have sparked interest. I emailed "Lab4tox" asking if there is an actual name that I could place on the address, but no one has answered that email. So I was curious as to how people that may have some experience with this would handle the situation, or direct me to another reputable testing source. Regardless, I will not go back into that post office after vibe I received. #smalltownvibes
Teflon,........ you are sending pieces of teflon rods to be tested because of galling during the machining process.
All ways be prepared with an answer.
Either blind them with brilliance,........ or baffle them with bull shit.
Yeah, they caught me off-guard with that BS. I will definitely keep what you said in mind and be ready the next time I go, but it will definitely be a different post office.
Haha this made me laugh
Janoshik does testing for sources on here and a I think I saw a few members used him too test gear. If you Google that name.He's located in Eastern Europe I think.
He does blind testing too so you can send anything without a label and he tests it and tells you what it is and the concentration. I've never used him personally though.
Yeah if you put lab 4 tox on the envelope it'll be strange, they should really have just a normal address you could send too
Thank you! I will check him out asap.
Don't bother checking out Janoshik. A member on another forum did a pretty extensive investigation into the legitimacy of Janoshik. It appear to be a scam.
Or he didn't like the results of their tests.
I actually just emailed Janoshik about testing samples. I'm willing to give him a shot. I've read some positive things about him after my recent post. I think I was too hasty.
He has some bad reviews on other forums I'm on so just do your research before thinking about using him
