Wow, lots of great replies!
Matt King: Phototrader looks pretty interesting, but also seems to have mostly industrial quantities. They also look like they have just dumped a bunch of catalogs on-line, though I have bookmarked them for the future, ya never know.
srs: I had checked eBay, but as you noticed, it is thin on the ground right now.
Rob: Freeze it?? I never thought (or heard) of that. That is a very interesting idea. I don't have a deep freeze right now, but kinda need one anyway so I would definitely consider getting one if that worked out. I sort of despise kodak chemicals (completely irrational, leftover from being a mini-lab printer many years ago), but might be willing to give it a go. My local stores are largely thieves, but it would make it easier, I admit. That one will require some thought.
mhv: I am going to Montreal soon anyway, and actually they are well within day-tripping for me (and the g/f likes to clothes shop there...). Maybe I will check it out.
Thanks for all the pointers!
