5 x 7" Delta 100

[Harlan Chapman]

Nervously floating a ballon here:

Jeff at Badger Graphic says he needs an order of 10 boxes to obtain this from Ilford.
He gives an approximate price of $125 per 100 sheet box.
I'm good for 5 boxes.
Any others interested so we can come up with 5 more and get an order filled?

[peter schrager]

I would do a couple of boxes
Best, Peter

Yes, I would also if the price is really $125 for 100 sheets. That is a very good price.

[Eric Biggerstaff]

I would be in for a box or two at that price.

The best price I have seen is $145 per 100 and that was via B&H and they were out when I checked a week or so ago. B&H wanted a minimum order of 45 boxes. Also, Jeff used to stock this film as did Freestyle last year and they were both around the $145 per box mark if I remember correctly.

Delta 100 is a very nice film and has the best pricing of any out there for a 100 sheet box. I am down to only two in the freezer so I would likely buy 2 if they are $125 per box.

[Ron Marshall]

I would be in for a box at that price.

[BILL3075]

At that price, count me in for 3 boxes.

Thanks for your efforts,
BILL

Looks like we have more than the minimum to run the order. I'll let Jeff at Badger know and find out from him how to proceed. Hopefully we can all just place direct orders with Badger, that would be simplest I think.
Back to you all soon.
This is great, I'm looking forward to having a nice supply to work with.

[Chauncey Walden]

Hi Harlan! I've never used it but my friend Eric Biggerstaff swears by it so I'll go in for a box and Eric and I can share the shipping. Right Eric?

[Harlan Chapman]

Badger Graphic is working on the details, I'll get back to you when I learn more.
And good to hear from you Chauncey.
Have a great Thanksgiving!
-Harlan

[Michael Graves]

If it's not too late, I would like a box as well.

[Robert Skeoch]

I hope this order goes through, and everyone gets what they want. If not Delta 100 in 5x7 is a regular stock item for me. We don't seem to have the minimal order issue with Ilford on this product.

I'm out of stock right now because I just filled a bunch of orders of it. I try and keep a couple boxes in stock since I shoot it myself.

[Harlan Chapman]

i've got my order for 5 boxes in.
You can order it here:

Looks like we have enough for this to fly if we all order.
A big thanks to Jeff at Badger for helping us, and to you all too.

[Harlan Chapman]

To Robert from bigcameraworkshops.com:
Thank you for letting us know about stocking this film. I wasn't aware that you were a resource and am glad to know about it.

[Eric Biggerstaff]

I placed my order today and I know Chauncey has placed his as well.

[Ron Marshall]

I placed mine yesterday.

[Ron Marshall]

Does Ilford only require 1000 sheets of 5x7 for a special order?

Does anyone know how close we are to the order minimum?

[Michael Kadillak]

I placed an order for a box as well. These big ass cameras I have been feeding tell me that at this unit price, this is a no brainer. Looking forward to getting to know this film.

[winterclock]

Anyone have an update on this?

[Eric Biggerstaff]

Well, if we needed 10 boxes to fill an order we should have easily met that requirement. Harlan 5 boxes, Ron 1 box, Chauncey 1 box, Michael 1 box and Eric (me) 2 boxes, that is 10 by my math. But, I have not heard of any order status from Badger, perhaps Harlan has one as he was getting the order together. If I had a few more bucks I would order another 2 boxes. At $125 per 100 sheets for 5X7 film, it is a great deal. I would guess that anyone who wants to jump in still has time as the Badger site shows the special order pricing still listed.

If this is a regular SKU for Robert then I would like to know his pricing and shipping cost to the US, it would make it easier to get it as needed.

[Michael Kadillak]

Someone just needs to call Badger and find out the status of this arrangement and let us know. If need be I will give them a call tomorrow unless someone else steps up.

Cheers!

[Michael Kadillak]

I will give Jeff a call and let everyone know.

Jeff with Badger told me that the order has been previously placed and they are waiting on it to arrive. We just need to be patient.

Recent terrorist activity targeting shipped cargo is having an impact on analog film shipments. Obviously getting a film shipment smoked with high dosage xray screening is completely unacceptable which is where the TSA is moving in response to this problem. In fact conversations with European based film manufacturers have resulted in them shifting gears to sea for shipment which will take much longer to arrive but will not have the risk and arrive to the consumers fog free. I would add a month to 45 days minimum to the arrival time. Six months ago we got an 8x20 Efke 25 20 box film order air freight from Germany in one week. A recent shipment for 11x14 was supposed to arrive last week and we are now looking at mid February for the reasons stated above.

My advice is to be patient because this situation is out of ours and the film makers hands. Another reason IMHO to stock sheet film in frozen storage particularly if your favorite emulsion originates overseas.

[Harlan Chapman]

Thank you for following up on this.

[Eric Biggerstaff]

Thanks Michael! Happy new year, see you in a couple of weeks!

[Ron Marshall]

Thanks Michael!

[Michael Kadillak]

Thanks Michael! Happy new year, see you in a couple of weeks!

Looking forward to it!

Happy New Year to everyone!

[Michael Kadillak]

Glad that we ordered when we did. We avoided a 21% price increase in the process for Ilford paper and film. Efke/Adox did about the same thing and Arista will likely follow suit.

[GabrielSeri]

Is it too late to order a box?

[Michael Kadillak]

Is it too late to order a box?

Unfortunately, the order has been placed and we have been waiting on shipment for two weeks.

[Harlan Chapman]

The menu to order this film at Badger Graphic is still up. I wouldn't be surprised if Jeff ordered in some surplus over the minimum?
Could be worth placing an order even now. And you could always check with him directly.
-Harlan

[Michael Kadillak]

Excellent point Harlan. It would be like Jeff to order some extra.

Give Jeff a call.

[Eric Biggerstaff]

My 2 boxes of film arrived today from Badger.

Just FYI to those who ordered.

[Jon Wilson]

Mine arrived today too!

What is Analog Film?

My bad. Simply a poor choice of words to describe light sensitive materials that needs to be shipped.

[GabrielSeri]

I just checked the website and I believe they are taking another order. minimum is 10 boxes. The price is $142.99 for 100 sheets I guess the price went up.. Still worth it, I'm going to order tonight or tomorrow.

Special Order. We are taking orders at this time. We need a total of 10 boxes for Ilford to cut this film. Aprox. 6 to 8 week delivery once we place the order with Ilford.

They are taking another order in 5x7. I just put my name down for a box.

[Joel Truckenbrod]

Excellent. I just ordered 3 boxes. I'm thankful they're offering it - beats having to cut down 8x10 sheets!

[Riverman]

Yay! My Delta 5x7 arrived today. Happy Days.
