    I ordered up a pack of 5 rolls of Ilford HP5 for 20 euros today from Conns; is there any other vendor who is local (Europe) or offers a broader range of film stock?

    I was using 7dayshop, they have always some film close to expiry date, so quite cheap. And I don't care about expiry dates ;)

    7Dayshop.co.uk for practically everything. I just got a bunch of stuff from ag-photographic, including some ektar, for which they claim the cheapest price in the UK, but more than offset by their minimum £15 P&P ...
    Also, macodirect I've gotten some stuff from aswell, namely efke IR film and diafine.
    In all cases try and order as big a pile of stuff as possible, or go splitzies with people, to try and offset the postage.

    Actually, that's something I've never really considered. Now that I shoot Tri-X about 95% of the time in B&W I should probably look into it.

    I use 7dayshop so +1 for that!

    As Daire said try order in bulk to get more for you money.
