Tetenal E6 availability slips again

[nbagno]

Wonder what's going on? I've had the 2.5L E6 Tetenal kit on order since January 3rd and I see the availability date slipped again from end of March to end of April. :-| Not sure I can wait that long to process all my crappy shots that I'll end up throwing away anyway.

The tetenal kit is widely available this side of the pond, so it should be available where you are

But it's not...

The distributor probably batches up orders which get shipped infrequently.
By boat.

Buy the Fuji kit it's ONLY 200 bucks plus shipping. I sure miss the Kodak 5 liter kits I don't remember paying over 65 bucks and that was through my local fellow. If Kodak really is getting back into E6 the least they could do is sell a reasonable 5L kit again.
I just made my spring film, before it gets hot order, including 10 rolls of Fujichrome.

Wouldn't that be nice if Koday made an E6 kit again at a reasonable price.

FPP has a Unicolor kit: Dead Link Removed

If Kodak and Fuji want people to buy film, they need to sell professional kits. I have used the Tetenal 3 bath kits, they work well. I want to use the 7 bath chemistry. I know that keeping the labs in business is important to keeping E6 alive. I guess it's not a money maker or there would be more offerings. I just received 10 rolls of Fujichrome, I'm going to shoot some slides this summer. I'm sure I will end up buying the Fuji kit. Maybe $200 is cheap these days.
