35mm Slide film


I see film advertised mail order (mostly NY city & Brooklyn, NY) in photo magazines (Shutterbug) at a price considerably lower than other retail. I know about "grey market", but many dealers claim the film is "USA", some USA film is minus the "proof of purchase" label?

Should I avoid these so called bargains?

  I order film from B&H in NYC. They have a sterling reputation. I have never had any problem with the "imported" (a.k.a. grey market) films they have sold me. I order a minimum of 10 rolls at a time, usually more, to spread their minimum shipping cost across more rolls of film.
