It appears that all Kodachrome mailers are going to Fairlawn, NJ. I received a new supply of mailers about a month ago and they were all pre addressed to Fairlawn. They don't give you the option of sending them any place else any more. I have always used Kodak/Kodalux/Qualex/etc. mailers and have never had one lost or damaged in transit. I used to send them to San Francisco but then they started coming back from Dallas so I mailed them direct to Dallas and earlier this year they all started coming back from Fairlawn. Their service seems to be very slow. It took me 12 days for my last two and the two before that were over two weeks turnaround. I understand that the new Kodachrome processing machines are spreading. There is one in suburban Seattle but they won't accept mailers so I guess the only way to use that lab would be to go to a local photo store. It might be quicker. The advantage to mailers as I see it is that you can send your film out for processing while on the road and don't have to wait to get back to your local photo store to start the process. Also, I buy them from B&H photo in NYC and the price is right.
