I am actually surprised that Penn is closing some of it's stores. At least twice a week a visit both the E Str and Rockville stores - I work close to Penn and live close to Rockville. On Thursday I was at Penn E Str. I did not notice anything out of the ordinary I.e packed with costumers or sale/closing signs.
I have bought a lot of 4x5 films at the E Str store. They keep a few used 4x5 and MF gear and i have bought holders, Omega enlarger, Pentax Spotmeter. LF lenses etc.
I would agree that service is lousy, particularly at the Rockville store. It is different at their E Str store, I think because I wear a suit and bow-tie during the week!
In fact, a fes weeks ago I bought a mint 50mm Nikkor enlarging lens for $15 bucks. I buy all my darkroom supplies at Rockville - sad they are going to be closing both of my favourite locations.
I am not a fun of Ace Photo - Moe has attitude too! Well that is the nature of this business
Tautatis!
