Not a bad deal but the shipping charge is too much.

Have you seen the following? https://buy.armbrustusa
I know they sent masks for ASTM test and no updates since then. Is it possible their masks failed the test?

I've looked at Armburst but their shipping is taking forever and their customer service is completely unresponsive to calls, emails, texts. They've apparently tested 35 masks with Nelson labs that all passed the fluid resistance tests but nothing yet on bacterial or particle filtration efficiency. I do trust them though based on their principles, openess, and materials they claim to be using. Others who bought them seem convinced as well but only continued testing and clearances will show. They list on their site that they are now FDA EUA approved. In speaking with the FDA I found out that it probably doesn't take a tremendous amount of validation to get the emergency use approval.
Attaching some photos of the masks I got. They came in a ULINE box, with a somewhat generic authenticity paper on the inside. I don't really know what to look for but the masks do feel fairly solid; I cut one mask into half and the nosepiece seems to be white plastic which matches the 510k report data mentioned in the previous post.
Please let me know if there are any other questions.
I have an order open with Armbrust from May (scheduled to ship June 12th originally) with no ETA and no response from their customer support over multiple e-mails. Once those eventually arrive I can try a comparison.
