Once we accepted prepaid processing coupons on Kodak slide film that simply instructed us to collect the coupon, give the customer the processing, and send the coupon to Kodak. We accepted a couple of dozen of them, sent them to Kodak...and then Kodak made us jump through a bunch of hoops to make sure we were a genuine lab (which was understandable, but a simple call to one of our suppliers would have been enough -- they wanted banking information, among other things), and then told us they only accepted the coupons in batches of 200, and that they would not be returning the coupons to us. Oh, and that the coupon program had been discontinued, so we wouldn't likely see any more, so the coupons were worthless to us anyways. Actually, they weren't -- we would have made a deal with a bigger lab that we dealt with, and traded them the coupons for processing credit with them (and they would have had 200 coupons). But Kodak refused to send them back. I couldn't really say to the customer "Hey, now you have to pay for these...but you can't have your prepaid coupons back to use elsewhere", so I ended up paying the bill myself. You see why a dealer would be wary of a Kodak coupon. -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.

Re: Free Kodak Elitechrome Extra- Color
Hi, Here we have Inkley's, which is part of the Ritz family. They don't stock it. We don't have a Walgreens, but various camera stores and drug stores don't have it either. I finally did find one small corner shop that had it.but, they wouldn't take the coupon because they don't buy the film from Kodak and can't get reimbursed. If anyone wants this coupon from me (it's a little dog-eared from being in my wallet while I trotted around to all these downtown camera stores) email me off list and I'll send it your way.

Re: Free Kodak Elitechrome Extra- Color
Hi, I think it's only in subscription issues. After I got mine in the mail, I thumbed through another one at the bookstore and the coupon isn't there. Not that the coupon does me any good in Salt Lake City. The "Pro" camera shops don't carry Kodak's "consumer" films (like Elitechrome EC) and the regular photo stores and other retailers carry at best something at each ISO speed point from Fuji and Kodak, but no special flavors. I think that the folks that run these shops see so little profit (and volume) from consumer slide film users that there is little incentive to carry more than the bare minimum.
