Hello,
I have an older Century 8x10 camera and the bellows are shut. I would like to get new ones on order, but have no idea where to go. I know Ebay sells some, but I don't trust Chinese sellers. Does anyone know someone that I can send my old bellows to so they can make me new ones. Ideally, I would like to send them the front plate as well so they can match the wrapping.
Thank you for your time.

why don't you trust Chinese sellers?
Rudy at ecbuyonline does a great job and there's plenty of positive feedback in the large format world to back it up.

Custom bellows in the UK recently made a replacement bellows for my Anniversary Speed Graphic. I did have to send the original to them, but the bellows they sent fit perfectly.

Hey there, how much did it run you if you don't mind me asking?

I bought a replacement bellows for my Toyo 810G and it's fantastic (better than original)... made in China. It was less than half the cost of a USA or EU made bellows... and I know for a fact that 'some' of those suppliers are buying Chinese and re-selling.

I sent my old bellows to Rudy to be copied. Now all it's left is to wait. Thank you for all your help. :smile:
