Don, WTB notices are not permitted here. However, we can assume you really meant "Does anybody know where to get one?".
I've seen them before at Pacific Rim. Of course, they occasionally show up on the "big auction site". |

Thanks for the "heads up". I didn't know WTBs aren't allowed. Why not? Do you know of a good place to post them about Graflex stuff? |

Hi Don,
There are several links for "where to buy" listings which can be accessed from the main Graflex.Org home page. I have read that when they were setting up this website, the powers-that-be didn't want this help forum to compete with camera collectors & dealers, who make a living buying and selling. For "sail" items & WTB's haven't been allowed here. But keeping in mind the rarity of some Graflex equipment, usually asking where such-and-such might be found is usually allowed and most members are happy to try to help one another, usually through the "private messages" feature.
Certainly you could keep an eye open on the big E auction site, sooner or later just about everything Graflex does turn up, some things more often than others.
There is also a Large Format classified section on Photo.Net that accepts WTB listings.

How about offers to swap small things for other small things?
The problem nowadays is that it's not worth anyone's while to list obscure items worth a buck or two (which I'm sure is why Midwest Photo Exchange, at least, invites calls from people looking for odd junk).
The Internet has not yet evolved an electronic equivalent of the cardboard box on the store counter, full of 46mm. Walz screw-in flashbulb-to-daylight conversion filters and other delights... |
