ya it's true.
time to stockpile.

 

[nightwolf75]

sad.. but expected. polaroid is an essentially dying tradition with digital cameras.

Well, if you haven't bought any polaroid film in the last five years, there's no reason to lament. Me? I've never had a polaroid camera, never bought a single piece of polaroid film in my life.

 

[tribal.snake]

then u have been missing an unique experience.

 

[gangeslim]

[cchsieh]

just curious, will anybody interest in mass order 600 film ?stock up for personal use.... After all polaroid is super sensational and there is no match.

It was too expensive for me back in the 70's when I was a kid.

 

[ullyss]

most of the polaroid uses buy the double polaroid pack at photo finish shop in centrepoint as they have double pack and mine was till 08/2009 date........................................:think:

 

[heartsinmotion]

Anyone know where can I get Polaroid 600 films at the cheapest rate?

 

[iboey]

I guess the question is not to find the 600 for the cheapest price rather where can you still get your hands on them.

 

[vanda]

try the photo finish photo outlets like centerpoint or novena, they still hv films.............cannot find cheaper as last time at mustafa it was $18 early last yr but now i know $22 onwards is the going rate !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

shoot sparingly !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!;p

 

[vanda]

ruby photo may still have it....................................

shoot sparingly !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!;p
