That would be me. Chris (and any other List members in or around Edmonton,
Alberta, Canada) you can still get Varta V625PX's at McBain's Camera (any
location, but the 107th Avenue store is the best-stocked, and it gives you an
excuse to go and ogle their new digital section [they've been renovating] --
the E-10 combined with the Oly dye-sub printer is an awesome combination!).
I bought a box of 10 V625PX's not too long ago, and only have two left. At the
time, they were selling for $5.95 CDN + GST, with no discounts for a boxful.
