i hate the camera stores here. the markup is ridiculous. i'd be okay with that if they had a huge inventory, but they rarely have stuff that i'd actually use in stock (like, say, velvia 50, or astia in 120 size). the salesmen are all depressed photo grads who take out their creative frustration on anyone who shows even the slightest hint of knowledge with withering passive aggression.
"hey man, i wanna pick up some 4x5 film." "don't you know that film is dead? everyone works with digital now." "uh, okay. but do you guys have any 4x5?" "lemme see. what kind are you looking for?" "velvia." "we don't have that. we only have E100G and Portra." ".. okay, fine. i'll take it. how much?" "40 for ten sheets."
