International How To Request A Quote - Science Kit

Requesting a Quotation on Sciencekit.com

Preregistration before requesting a quotation is not necessary on our website.

Requesting a quotation online from Science Kit is an easy process. You select the products you want to purchase, provide contact information, shipping and billing addresses, and send us the request. Let's walk through the steps and see how they work online.

Shopping Cart

We use a shopping cart to hold the items you are interested in purchasing. Placing an item in the cart is easy and doesn't commit you to buying it. If you change your mind later, remove the item from the cart by clicking the "Remove" button.

Select Products

You can add products to your shopping cart using a variety of methods:

1. Navigate to the products that interest you, enter the quantity, and click "Add to Cart". You may navigate by:


• Browsing through the product categories displayed on the left hand side of every page.
• Searching for the product name or item number.


2. Select an item directly from a category or search results list by clicking "Add to Cart".
   
3. Enter items using the Express Quote tool. Just type in the item number and quantity and click "Update Items in Quote"
   
4. You can add the contents of a previously saved cart to your active shopping cart.

Manage Your Cart

You can update your shopping cart at any time by clicking the shopping cart icon at the top right corner of the screen. You may perform the following actions on your cart:

• Checkout
• Save the cart for future use
• Share the cart with another person
• Print the cart
• Change the quantity for an item
• Remove an item from the cart

Step 3 – Select the billing address

Step 4 – Select the shipping address

• Select the address you where you want the order to be sent. If you have restricted items in the cart or are paying by purchase order, the shipping address must be that of an educational institution. We cannot send restricted items to individuals or companies.
