[Gary Holliday]

I would be grateful if anyone can give me details of suppliers of Foma FB papers in mainland Europe especially the Czech Republic.

Thanks

More precisely from the Foma website:

Značková prodejna v Praze končí
po 60-ti letech končí v Praze činnost značkové prodejny FOMA...

Nach 60 Jahre wird das kleine Foma Geschäft am Jungmannovo
náměstí leider geschlossen.

I'm not sure, but I could imagine you can buy Foma products at their production plant in Hradec Kralové, since they also offer guided tours of the factory. Again, not sure though.

 

[Fotohuis]

You can not buy at the factory in Hradec Kralové but you can buy for the time being at the Foma shop in Hradec Kralové near the bridge to the centre.

I went in this shop in Hradec Kralove, but it's a little bit empty... There is not a big choice of product, and very few papers... Better in the praha foma shop...

Hi !
In 1999 when in Prague, I've found a pro shop called AZfoto (can't remember the place) which had a lot if not all Foma products and Meopta and Viponel products in shop. Maybe a phone directory will trace them ?

Foto Skoda mentioned by Robert is the safest bet. Not much analog stuff remained in other shops

AZfoto has web site www.azfoto.cz but I didn't saw papers (or films or chemistry). On the other hand I don't understand Czech language, so...

 

[Gary Holliday]

Foto Skoda doesn't seem to ship to the rest of Europe if I've understood their shopping cart correctly. There is no English on the site. However Kentmere FB seems to half the price I pay!

Fotohuis: Foma shop in Prague should be moved to other premises. At leat I was told that by Foma shop employee that the only reason of closing down is termination of rental agreement. They will send me an email with new address.

Gary: The reason for that price is special sale (30% if I remember correctly).

haris: I've just checked AZFOTO web site and they didn't offer any papers there...

All: I'll call to lady which is responsible for sales of papers and films in FOTO SKODA and ask her if they are willing to ship to EC at least...

 

[kapro]

Good news for you: you can order whatever you want from FOTO SKODA via e-shop on: http://www.fotoskoda.cz/eObchod/default.asp?pa=4-EN.

Payment should be possible by credit card or wire transfer. They ship to EC. Shipping outside the EC is subject to agreement.

Hope it helps

This company was very helpful...

Fotoskoda appear to be one of the few who stock the Fomatone MG 333 velvet paper.
