Since PdCl2 only dissolves in highly acidic aqueous solutions, I imagine there would be objections to evaporating down 500mL (1 troy ounce of metal) of this fuming dark brown solution in midtown Manhattan. Thus, any orders will have to wait until after I can travel to my lab and properly extract it. Cost should be about $25/g for the chloride (multiply by 0.6 to figure out how much metal that is), though I'd be willing to come down a bit in exchange for useful reagents that I'm currently lacking. Basically, anything that isn't readily available on eBay from within the US, I may be interested in.
For instance, gallium, indium, propiophenone, TBAB, and acetonitrile (yes, it's on eBay, but surprisingly expensive).

Ive got gallium 250g now and i have 300g in transit due this week. But I'd trade for a few grams. anything not on ebay is USUALLY not shippable by USPS, which will make most people not reply since shipping legally is expensive to get started requires a class from fedex but ive got the shipping training and my business license has other perks.
I gave: gallium, sodium, mercury, Mg shavings oil free, cadmium, chromium, barium, lots of acids and metal salts, alkyl nitrites, organic acids and really decent amounts of most that I listed. Oh also 1/4"D x 12"<14" carbon electrodes and just about any metal type except titanium and platinum. Can get lots of stuff but nothing I will do that requires more than a hold-harmless agreement. I don't want to get into filing paperwork and having inspections too expensive to be totally on the up and up with storage and ventilation.
---somewhat related---
When I have to evaporate a large and nasty fuming solution ill do a normal distillation with submerged pump boosted/recycled aspirator into a chain of gas scrubbers fitted with porous stone fish tank bubbler for maximum absorption the final output is basically inert. I tested a similar setup without the vacuum aspirator and condensing H cyanide then distilling and it took three 500ml bubblers of NaOH, NaOCl or H2O2 not in that order, way more than expected, when i added the fish tank bubbler i only NEEDED one NaOCl bubbler. However I always have a contingency plan for those types of tests an three bubbler's remain just to be sure.
