HI, all,
I've looked into the usual suspects (JandC, Brookwood, B&H...and some Australian sites) but they're listing 5x7" FP4+ as special order, if lucky.
Anyone have any insights into who actually has stocks and can ship?

Thanks,
Carsten, downunder

Freestyle Photo in Los Angeles, CA has it, but that's a long way to ship!

Thanks, Ed,
distance no drama; I often have U.S. stuff in my hands within 5 days...as to the cost...it varies; some online stores tend to overcalculate the actual shipping cost considerably....
Thanks again, I'll check out Freestyle now...

If you have problems with a US supplier then http://www.silverprint.co.uk/ in the UK is a good source.

B&H is showing it as in stock now.

B&H is showing it as in stock now.If one looks for this film on the B&H site by way of "other sizes" in the size dropdown, 5x7 comes up as "special order" for some reason. If however one goes straight to 5x7 in the size dropdown, it's "in stock." Seems B&H erroneously included 5x7 in the special order sizes when Ilford's twice-yearly ULF program was launched.

In a pinch you can try Glazers Camera in Seattle Wa. i can usually go there and find either HP5 or FP4 in stock in 5x7

Thanks all for your help!

To summarise: there seem a lot of options in the U.S., few in Europe and none in Australia....

There are lots in Europe, especially if you include 13x18cm (which needs different holders, but the same external size). I've never had any problems finding either size.
