Marc Elliott of Color Services in Needham, MA is putting together an order for 5x7 Portra 160 NC. The cost is $202 per 50 sheet box .... a great price! They have the order mostly together but need around 15 more boxes before they can place it. The price will only remain firm from Kodak for a few more days so if you want some now is the time to jump on it. I'd love to see posts here to get an idea of how many people plan on participating but contact Mark direct at:

Thank you Ted for this information. I have already contacted Marc Elliott and he has
agreed to to include me on this and send some film to Iceland. This kind of help
shows the power of this forum.

Bump...

As of earlier this afternoon they were still about 8 boxes short. Kodak has allowed just a few extra days' extension on the price quote.

Just wanted to inform I received 2 boxes as ordered. Kudos to Color Services for their initiative and great, er, service - and to Ted for the heads up.
Thanks!

I received 4 boxes all the way to Iceland by Fed Ex two days after it was shipped
from Color Services. Great thanks to their initiative and dependable service.
This also shows what a great forum this is. Thanks again Ted.

Me too! I received my 2 boxes a few days ago. I appreciate the effort of Ted and the folks and Color Services - they were great to deal with. Unfortunately my local lab that could do 5x7 C41 just closed.....

I just purchased some 5X7 NC Portra, Kodak film from www.bhphotovideo.com.
I don't know if they bought a batch or if Kodak is cutting it to 5X7 as a production item but I have a box in hand. Expiration 2/2010
