They move quite a large amount of film, so not very risky. I order about 80% of my bulk film from them (I try to plan about a year ahead) and always get about 2 years more on the expiry.
Ruby is also good most of the time, similar times but little more expensive..but it depends what and how much you're ordering, B&H shipping to Singapore isn't that cheap either, 8 100" rolls I think about 60 dollars. Fortunately I have other means to get it to Singapore, so I can ship domestically in the US, makes it easier.

Just found this new website a couple of days back http://camerafilmphoto.com/ they're based in Hong Kong and have very reasonable prices for films as well. As for shipping cost I don't think it's too expensive can even opt for cheaper airmail. Delivery timing probably much faster due to the proximity as well.
Cinestill at 13.49 sgd is a steal.
Will buy my next round of films from there and review them.

Feels like getting harder to source film. I called Ruby the other day (trying to support local business who sticks to film) looking for bulk roll Delta 400. Auntie told me it might be months but sounded very much like "we don't know, maybe sometimes if you're lucky". I regularly have to wait for delivery, so try to buy larger quantity at once (3-4 bulk rolls at least). So she offered me HP5 instead. Not very keen as I have a project mostly shot on Delta 400. Turns out I cannot buy more than one of that either, others are waiting too. So I had to turn to B&H as I need it on time, now have 8 long rolls (that's about 130 rolls) in the freezer, should be ok for this year. Damn leeches charged me on import tax though. Not very happy, I hope Ruby can keep it up.
