Steve Ricoh Posted October 16, 2020 Share #1 Posted October 16, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) Whether distributors pass on the price increase, we’ll have to wait and see.

adan Posted October 18, 2020 Share #3 Posted October 18, 2020 Kodak, too (or at least somewhere in their distribution chain). Bought a roll of TMax400 120 this week, locally - price was $9.99. Six months ago, it was $7.99. That would approximately equal the combined Harman increases under Covid (15% in May, another 5% now). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Ricoh Posted October 18, 2020 Author Share #5 Posted October 18, 2020 The result of increasing the price of film, especially in the period of Covid, may well follow the law of diminishing return. If youngsters taking up film are part of the growth, then job uncertainty and falling wages, at best, could spell troubling times ahead for the sustainability of the analogue industry. For the present, I’m glad my fridge is well stocked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

May increase was on chemicals and other sundries, October one is on films and papers but yes everything is getting more expensive. I hope that won’t hurt their overall books Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'm sorry if I've said something in a wrong way. All I want to say is that the increase from the old to the new prices mentioned here is much more then 5%. Hope someone is now able to understand what I mean, or can point out how it's said correctly. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe my shop has digested May increase increase but have decided to reflect October one on the prices. Apologies Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
