This is mainly for people in NJ, Delaware and eastern PA...

Le Camera, located in Trenton has been a very good resource in providing used darkroom items. I recently bought a 4 blade 11x14 easle for $30 and they have another as well. They also have a good supply of enlarger lenses that I've enjoyed picking over.

The prices on non darkroom items can sometimes be higher than expected but it's at least worth a trip if you're close. For me it made sense if the prices were close to e*bay and most of what I bought was below.

They also have a few 8x10 holders in better than average shape kicking around (I bought 6 this weekend).

I figured it wasn't nice to keep this source all to myself

Alan.

Yes they are still in business. The owner and his wife went to the same HS with my wife. I have met his wife but not Phat Le the owner. I heard that they closed for a while due to theft.

Haven't heard of theft trouble but I've only been going for about 6 months. Phat Le is a pretty nice guy. He's also agreed to carry EMULSION so he's down with supporting film.

Seems like everytime I go in there he's got a bunch more darkroom stuff I need

Well thanks, MenacingTourist! I went there to check it out and by the time
I left, my wallet was $320.00 lighter.
They have a lot of nice stuff and let me take all the time I wanted checking out lenses.
