ILFORD ULF Make : Poor Level Of Orders [But Ilford comes through in the end!]

[PBrooks]

I missed the pre-order, as I didn't think I would be able to afford or get a 14x17 so fast. But, I was able to place adds and find someone with one box to spare and he told me to call Galzers, they told me they could get some more FP4, that would be fine but I'm hoping there was an over run on the HP5. Any chance in that? Thank you again for helping us.

Anyway, I will keep you all informed

Regards & again, many thanks to all those who ordered and value ILFORD ULF film.

I would certainly not mind to have my name and email inserted in a mailing list managed by Ilford, so that we can be notified when the next ULF run takes place. This would be _on_top_ of press releases. I think that overcommunicating in this specific instance is perfectly OK: customers won't complain, I am pretty sure

I totally concur! I hope Ilford will add my email address for notices on placing future ULF orders. I was able to place an order through Freestyle for several boxes of 11x14, but have not received it yet. Has anyone received anything on their order? Thanks. Jon

I'm one of the Ilford ULF dealers supplying the product through Wynit in Canada.

I've received some of the not so popular sizes like 7x17 over the last few weeks but it's hard to know if they're part of the new production or just film that was already in the pipeline.

I haven't received any of the real hard to find sizes like 10x12 or 16x20.

I'm not sure 11x14 is part of the ULF program.... since it's listed with Ilford as a regular stock item. I have been able to get HP5 in 11x14 when needed, and keep a box in stock.

I'll be talking with Wynit today so I'll post any new information I might get.

I talked with Wynit today about the ULF shipment and all they could say was "pretty soon".
They did have dates for....

FP4 in 7x17 .... end of June
FP4 11x14 ... next week
FP4 5x12 ... July 6

Those were the only ones I asked about.

Thanks for the update Rob. FP4 11x14 is what I ordered. Jon

Just to keep people up-dated. I recieved a note from Wynit/Ilford this week that they have shipped the ULF 10x12 FP4 that I had on order.

Just to update everyone on delivery of ULF order, I just received an email from Freestyle 6/29/07 confirming shipment of my FP4 11x14 film. I hope others receive their orders soon. Jon

Anyone got their 4x10s yet?

Got my 6.5"x8.5" last night from Freestyle.
