I'm going to be trying this out for the first time, so I'll let you know how it goes, but this seems pretty convenient

I have some for sale in the FS forum, in case anyone is interested.

I'm also doing group buys for it, basically the same price as it is listed there, $100 for the 4x5 stuff. Surprised Amazon price must have come down recently.

There's some really ancient and even "used" (returned) sheet films listed on Amazon. This is of course a licensed search engine and could potentially mean some box Ernie's Bait Shop accidentally hooked while out fishing for tarpon. As always, ya gotta discern these kind of liquidators from dealers offering fresh product.
Amazon per se has nothing to do with any of this, other than earning a royalty on the search engine service itself and associated billing convenience. In other words, they aren't the ones actually buying and selling the film, volume or otherwise.

If the OP objects I'll remove this link to the group buy info.

No problem stone... I've got no stake in my original post. I thought any extra information obtaining rvp 50 in the states would be useful

Cool, well I tried to get my contact to sell it at a rate that was under what the eBay and Amazon sold for so it breaks down to be about $20-$25 cheaper which is nice. But the prices are always fluctuating because of the yen exchange.

Anyway good for sharing.

FYI Amazon Japan sells it directly, but doesn't deliver overseas (to us). If you have a friend in Japan that will forward to you, your cost can be about $75 per box, delivered. :D

In this case, White Rabbit Express is that friend. Go to http://whiterabbitexpress.com. They will ship anything from Japan to wherever you like. I've used them many times, works perfectly.

Just got my box from one of lower priced Amazon marketplace vendors for $96 free shipping. Box dated 9/2016... Looks solid. It took exactly 3 weeks. Not bad imo

Meanwhile nobody wants to buy my box for sale in the FS forum for 80 dollars with free shipping. I guess that's marketing for you.

Yours is a better deal for sure...for a single box

I want to. Solid price as it is $66 in Japan and then you have to ship it in. Which means I just bought 4 boxes for $75 each. $80 is fair, I'm just flush at the moment.
