Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a store that sells x-ray film in 8x10 and 11x14 in NYC? I will be in Manhattan the last weekend of September. Thinking I may pick up a box or two.

From this guy? You may need to go to Boston to pick it up...

Probably easier and cheaper to just order by web and have the film delivered to your hotel. I am sure there are more than a few stores selling X-Ray supplies in the NY area, but they are most likely in Flushing, or somewhere else you don't want to go. Don't forget that NYC has a 8.25% sales tax.

I ordered Fuji Green sensitive film from CXS online (http://www.cxsonline.com/text/detailpage.tmpl?command=showpage&sn=798142&sku=WMGC1417&cart=13161955514308524&location=10011004), and it came to me pretty quickly, despite the red shipping delay warning on the linked page above. The shipping was fairly outrageous, but it still ended up being cheaper than any that I've been able to find in Vancouver in a store front.

Vaughan,

Nice, I checked Bostons' Craigslist, but he hasn't put up the sale yet. Maybe tomorrow.

Jason,

I am use to it, 13% here in Ontario and at least a 20% markup if I buy anything in town. Shipped to the NYC address, maybe, probably.

Graham,

Looks like I will have to buckle down and just order it online.

Thanks for the replies.
