Have a project, low on funds, and one of APUG sponsors nor Unique nor B&H has it. B&H doesn't ship press kits, even powder only.

Please only answers to my question. Someone told me to buy a $200 kit that would have also been haz mat.

FreeStyle is an APUG sponsor and sells C41 kits. I use the 1 liter Unicolor kits.

If I may ask a few questions, what is your max budget for a sub gallon C41 kit and are you opposed to dry blix kit?
I cant help you with the DVD-R purchase. They are available at every drug store, electronic, computer store, and possibly gas stations so its hard to understand why the store must sell both.
Search for "BVY flexicolor C41 kit" for a liquid 5 liter kit or if you can use a dry blix kit try: Dead Link Removed

Could someone actually read the question and answer? Neither of you apparently read the question before "answering."

Yes, I actually want the powder as it avoids ORM-D charges and hassles.

The 1 liter Unicolor kit from Freestyle is powder and is not noted as ORM-D. They have other liquid kits, like Tetenal, although marked as ORM-D it doesn't look like there are extra charges. For example, ground shipping to 46227 is $8.99. But for all that, the Unicolor kit is the least costly one before shipping.

They don't seem to sell DVD's though, you may be able to get them with free shipping from someplace like Staples, other sources I'd look at would be Newegg or Office Depot, maybe even B&H, they are offering free shipping on quite a lot of their stuff, dunno about DVD's though.

Since you are willing to go with dry powder (which you did not specify in your original post), you can order this stuff from amazon. I even found a seller on Amazon with both things....You'll pay LOTS more by doing it this way, and they arent a "photo store" but they have both available.

Forgive me but I am left thinking these odd thoughts about your two posts here at APUG: Are you wanting to buy this stuff or just writing an article or something? Buying the stuff from one store would seem to be about saving on shipping, but its almost like you are angry that B&H wont ship dry chemicals or that Unique doesn't carry DVDs and you want to call them out on it, otherwise why would it matter if its a photo store or if they advertised on this site? On the DVD-r media: That is so need specific for a "project" (which we cant see any details of) where you might need an expensive 5 pack at walgreens or 100 disks from a specialty store like Fry's or microcenter.

Anyway, good luck with your project.
