I have run out of Velvia 50 in 4x5 sheets and only have one box in 8x10. Who sells the most economical price of fresh Velvia 50 in sheet sizes? Prices seem to be all over the place on Ebay. Not needing it just yet, but just doing research on best place to buy.

I might also get some E100 in both sheet sizes. I see Freestyle has this now, so I might grab some of that. But I still like Velvia 50 for some shots. Doesn't matter if its a 10 sheet or 20 sheet box. As long as the price isn't sky high.

Velvia 50 isn't sold in USA. I got mine directly from Japan. Whoever you buy from, verify the expiry date before purchasing. Don;t forget the shipping costs.

Yes, that is the same path I've taken since 4x5 V-50 was deleted from USA shelves. I've had excellent support from a couple eBay vendors.

I've bought a few times from this vendor "nyjbloom" on eBay without any trouble at all. I will admit with the pandemic it has been at least 4 or 5 months since I've bought any film. I had a pretty good stock that has held me off for sometime now.They've had over 4k sales and 100% Positive ratings.

The NYJBLOOM guy doesnt ship to Canada which is where Im at. So he's out. There was a guy on this site living in Japan that used to sell Velvia 50 to local members here. Is he still active?

This is what I've done in the past and the shipping from Japan to the USA is very reasonable. However, in the current global situation who knows...
