I like using the Arista Private Reserve VC RC paper. I ordered a 25 pack of 11x14 a month ago for $20.99. Now it seems that price for the same pack is $27.99. Thats a 33% price hike!! Yikes. I guess this is what we pay for as the price for silver keeps climbing.

And the US dollar has been falling against the Euro.

They raised prices on some of the Arista rebranded films at the beginning of last month.
100ft rolls of 135 Arista Premium 400 went up quite a bit.

The US dollar is falling against real world value, but just the Euro.

true, it has been falling against several currencies, but the Private reserve paper is made in the EU, and so the price paid by the dealer in the states will vary with the USD/Euro rate.
