FP100c in Mpls or Kansas

[Wayne]

anyone know of a real store that sells this in these cities? I'll be passing through in a couple days and can't wait for shipping

I looked at Moler's Camera in Wichita, they're website shows only 3.25x4.25.

Edit: Sorry, I see you must mean Kansas City.

 

[Wayne]

Yeah I couldn't edit the title but I tried. I did mean KC. However Wichita might work, but right now weather looks to be pushing me further east down through Arkansas and I don't expect I'll find any there...Shreveport would be the next city of any size that I'd hit

 

[winger]

What route are you going and when? I'm in SW Iowa (not too far from rt 29) and have 4 packs of FP100C I'm not going to use that soon. I can wait for more to ship if you come near enough and want these.

 

[Wayne]

Thanks Winger. I'll be heading down 35 all the way to KC (beyond that is subject to weather) but that isn't too close to where you're at, is it? But that does bring Des Moines into play too...if there is someplace there. But they'll probably be closed anyway by the time I pass

 

[Wayne]

Oooh, yah. Just checked the weather and Wichita is definitely out...I'm camping, but not when its 20 and snowing...so Arkansas to Louisiana it is.

 

[hamradio]

You're out of luck for 100c in the TC metro area, as far as I'm aware.

I'm a bit West of 35, sorry (almost in NE, really).

 

[Wayne]

Ah well. I'll live until I get where I'm going. I just like to shoot roids on road trips but I guess I'll have to use the hard stuff.

Odd you can find it in Wichita and not mpls...

How much west? If everything goes as planned it will be pretty late Friday evening when I get to southern IA.

Well I was surprised, too. It was shown on their website, don't know if they actuelly have it.

I try to stop in there to buy film or somethings when I'm visiting family.

Happy travels.

You're in Houston, eh-how about Houston or San Antonio?

There are 2 camera/film stores left here and Camera Co-op only seems to have black and white film.
Not sure about Houston Camera Exchange.
If the timing is not too late for you, I'm happy to check with both tomorrow and post on
here tomorrow morning.

I don't know about San Antonio, will try and check it out.

 

[drkhalsa]

The Camera Exchange in San Antonio has it listed on their website.
Size 85×108mm.

That could be perfect. Still not 100% sure where my route will take me ( I never decide until the night before or morning of...) but its likely with the coming cold front it will take me through Houston and SA for warmth. I've been looking for a reason to stop in SA and now I've got one. I won't get there till at least Tuesday.

Neither Houston Camera Exchange, nor Camera Co-op are answering the phone. Will try tomorrow.

 

[drkhalsa]

I called Houston Camera Exchange just now and they have 4 boxes.
7X9 cm.
Camera Co-op usually carries it, but they're out of stock.

If your travels bring you this way, seems like you have some options to purchase in Houston or San Antonio.

 

[drkhalsa]

Wayne, the weather forecasts are looking on the cold and rainy side for Houston and San Antonio/Austin.
I imagine you're already tuned in to the weather.

 

[Wayne]

Yeah the weather has thrown a wrench into everything. I don't think I'll be going through Houston now, but I might still make San Antonio on Monday. Thanks for the research! I also may make it to Austin but if so it will be later Sunday and I'm sure I won't find anyplace open.

Just like a previous poster, I have 4 packs that I just got from B+H. If you could predict where you'll be on let's say Wednesday, I'd be willing to priority mail (2 day) them to you to you at General Delivery of a post office you think you'll be near. PM me if you think that could be done.

 

[Wayne]

Thanks for the offer Kirks. By Wednesday I will be where I'm going and will order some film from the usual sources. Fortunately, this cold dreary trip has been very non-photogenic. By tonight I will be happily camping in the rain somewhere in south Texas and might be able to hit San Antonio Camera Exchange on Monday....
