Hi Gerald,

Thank you for the fantastic review, we really appreciate it.

Great to hear you value the range, we work hard to make sure we’ve got all the trusted darkroom and film brands covered, along with some of the more niche options that can be harder to find. Pleased the pricing and delivery options are hitting the mark too.

Thanks again for your support.

All the best,

Hi William,

Thank you for the fantastic review, it’s great to hear this.

We’re really pleased everything arrived safely and on time, and that the team could help both over email and on the phone. It sounds like you’ve got a proper darkroom setup going there.

We work hard to make sure there’s a good range for both those starting out and more experienced analogue photographers, so it’s great to hear that came through.

Thanks again for your support, and enjoy the shooting and printing.

All the best,

Hi Stephen,

Thank you for your review, and for your continued support over the years, it’s genuinely appreciated.

We’re really pleased to hear that your past experiences with us have been positive, and that you’ve found our team helpful.

Regarding the D-76 developer, we completely understand why you reached out to ask if we could assist. As discussed, the order was placed on 30th July 2025, so the items had been with you for just over 8 months before the return was requested.

Our standard returns window is 14 days, and while we do always try to be as flexible as possible where we can, there are limits to what we’re able to accommodate. This is particularly important with chemical products, as once they have left us, we’re unable to verify how they have been stored. Even if unopened, it would not be appropriate for us to resell returned chemicals to another customer without that certainty.

We do appreciate you taking the time to speak with us about it, and we’re sorry we weren’t able to offer a different outcome on this occasion.

If there’s anything else you need, or if we can help with advice on getting the most out of the developer you have, we’re always here to help.

All the best,

Hi Allan,

Thank you for such a thoughtful review, it’s really appreciated.

It’s great to hear you’ve been using us for your film and chemistry over the years, and that everything arrived promptly and as expected. Your comments on the Adox FX-39 II are really helpful too, especially around using smaller quantities to avoid waste, that’s a great way to work if you’re developing in batches.

Thanks again for your continued support, and we look forward to helping with your next round of film.

Thanks Eckart, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad the service itself hit the mark, even though we completely understand how frustrating the customs charges can be. Unfortunately those costs sit outside our control, but we always try to be as transparent as possible about why they happen. Hopefully we’ll be able to help you again in the future, and we’ll continue doing our best to make specialist products available despite the hurdles.

Thanks John for such a brilliant endorsement. The Stearman 810 is a cracking bit of kit, so it’s great to hear it found a good home. We do our best to stock the slightly harder-to-find stuff, so it’s lovely to know that’s coming through. We’ll be ready when you need us again.
