That's a generalisation you are making there. I am at least as happy with the outcome of the mail order lab as I am with my locals. Actually, the mail order lab in question uses a Frontier lab and Crystal Archive, my preferred paper, unlike my locals. OTOH, I dumped Ilford for B&W, for damaging a film and being unable to follow simple instructions. Never lost a film yet (tempting fate :-). Kostas
