You can try HK supplies through this site also, but atm even their forum members prices are dearer than what you can find elsewhere, maybe due to fluctuating currency

Scott,

In which way do you believe that having the site littered with countless threads on the same subject is more helpful? My query using "Discount Digital Photographics" as the search string yielded no less than 26 results. Had I used the string "DDD", I suspect there would have been at least as many again.

The OP was seeking comments from people who have used them, and there's plenty of these already scattered throughout the site. I see little reason for yet another thread on this topic.

You can try HK supplies through this site also,


The OP has just ten posts to his name, and is not, to my knowledge, a member of the "Members" group. Without such membership, how do you suggest this might occur? No doubt, at an appropriate time, he may ask for, and be granted, admission to the group, but that has not, as yet, occurred.

but atm even their forum members prices are dearer than what you can find elsewhere, maybe due to fluctuating currency


Maybe? ROTFLMAO!

Yes, perhaps maybe.
