Thought I would share this story about the local (Vancouver) store I most enjoy shopping at: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/beau-photo-still-standing-1.5038488

Very cool Matt. I'll definitely check them out in person next time I'm out west.

Neat, I'm lucky to have a real shop about 25 miles away. A good high school friend owns. He's been in business for around 40 years. Not much in the way of film but he has a real lab still.

My local store never stopped selling film cameras... A great source. But that it is. No fridges, no darkroom stuff.

Simple reason: no one is interested in buying such.

Looks very sturdy.
