Fotoimpex shows some 8x10 still in stock - no other sizes. Can't find it anywhere else. Probably hasn't been a fresh shipment in a very long time.
I've been watching Fotoimpex in hope of getting some 11x14. For some time there were dates specified as when it would be back, but that's now changed to just "out of stock".
Today Fotoimpex updated its listings for Bergger 13x18cm and 11x14" sheet films to "Out of stock (Expected back aprox. 25.10.2022)" which suggests a new delivery is coming, hopefully.
One can home. I imagine these small manufacturers struggle the most with the ongoing supply chain issues.
I would probably use this film if 14x17 were available, and only if they addressed the high B+F issue I mentioned earlier.

Andrew, I can't imagine Bergger has any plans to address the base + fog of the film. I suspect its inherent in the nature of this two emulsion style film. That said, I have had some success in suppressing the base fog by adding some benzotriazole to the developer used.
