Diafine for Canada

[dfoo]

Any other Canadians want some Diafine? I want to try some, but cannot find it in Canada. Therefore I want to order some from the US. However, I was considering ordering a larger quantity and then we could parcel it out. Anyone else up for that?

By "parcel out" do you mean order a lot of several packages and split that number up, or were you thinking of ordering, say, a gallon size and dividing up the powder?

Often Canadian domestic mail is as expensive as mail from the states, so remailing the original packages from a lot purchase might not actually save anything, unless the seller has minimum purchase requirements.

Hi I would be interested.But KenD make a good point.
Let me know what you come up with.

I was thinking of http://www.digitaltruth.com/store/cart/Diafine-2-Bath-Film-Developer-Case-Selection-p-1031.html. That works out to $11.33 + shipping for each quart, if we went for the 6 quart cans. 6 day shipping inside Canada would be a little more than $10 I think.

Ok were would it get shipped to and were are you located?As it would have to be shipped a second time.

I've been told this place on Elm has diafine, assuming you are in Toronto.

I actually spoke to them on the weekend about Diafine. They are currently out of stock but are expecting a shipment next month. If you're interested in some you should tell the store and they'll put your name on a wait list.

Apparently they stock the one gallon version (great to develop multiple rolls at once).

I'm in St. John's, NL. I don't care where it is originally shipped, as long as I get the diafine 🙂

BTW, if you want rodinal in Canada filmplus has it!

 

[dfoo]

Ahha! To kill my own thread, filmplus also has diafine. I don't know what size yet.

 

[dfoo]

The Diafine is 1 quart size for $18.95. They also carry Acufine $11.95.

The downtown Henry's also had Rodinal. I was going to buy some, but I couldn't remember why I wanted it and what it was good for.

Also, great find dfoo. I've been meaning to get some diafine for ages.

I cheated. I picked up some when I visited B&H in New York in December. 🙂

Good to know these places have it, though. And I didn't know about filmplus before.

 

[funkaoshi]

I just bought some from Film Plus, and tired it out tonight. It's almost TOO easy to use.

I ordered some diafine, rodinal and silvertone 100 today. Looking forward to trying it out!

Henrys has the wonderfully named Blazinal but no more Rodinal branded stuff. The last two bottles of Rodinal are now under my sink 😀

Pretty sure Downtown Camera has Rodinal but last time I checked it was priced about $20 a bottle compared to $16 at Henrys. I think the price went up around the time Agfa was going down.
