I have noticed a jump up in price for the Fuji instant 100c film at B&H. Maybe they are having a diminishing stock?
 
Hi Raid, I'm noticing prices going up on a number of things at B&H, mostly used stock. Kind of a shame as I've been buying there since 1993, mostly because of their pricing.
 
Adorama had it a few minutes ago for $8.99, but after a few minutes it changed to $12.95 with $7.95 for shipping.
So I went back to B&H and ordered five rolls at $10.45 with free shipping.
 
Yeah that happens when they see demand pick up.
A while back, Adorama had Fuji C200 36exp film for sale for $1.49 on clearance. I bought 100 rolls, I should have bought more! I mentioned it here, then they doubled their price on it as they saw a spike in demand.
 
Be grateful you are not in the UK. Here the price is 3 times US price, £20 ($30) pack. You can be sure I don't buy any at that price and add some to my 2 or 3 annual orders from Maco.

In online retail all sorts of algorithms are keeping track of you and figure out how badly you and others want something. Most sophisticated programs of this kind adjust flight and hotel prices almost on a hourly bases on the well known travel sites.

Some websites offer bigger discounts when you return after not buying.
This is a case where cookies can be a good thing. Chocolate chip, too! ;)

Anytime I go to book a cheap flight, then decide to wait, I go back and the fare is higher! I've learned to throw out the cookies after the first look...
 
im from the uk if i buy the f100c would u think it will be x-rayed and if so would it be ok? this prics is a no brainer even if i have to play a little tax as the cheapest ive found is for £17 over here
 
Silky, try ordering from Maco in Germany, €11.89 per pack, excellent service quick delivery. The only extra to pay is delivery, not sure what the minimum is but the last order I made with some film and chemicals was €12.50 delivery.

Somewhere in the browser settings - YMMV depending on the browser. Chrome can be set up so that it zaps all cookies on exit, other browsers may need user action each time. In the long run the best idea is to install a cookie manager browser addon that permits black- and whitelisting - these can usually be set up so that they delete every cookie that is not on your whitelist as you exit the browser, while protecting the few cookies relevant to you.
