Default Ilford 5% off until Midnight on 2nd April 2020

Yet another offer from Ilford That's now two in less than 2 weeks and of a greater frequency than I can recall in the past

It is not massive but in a large enough order to meet the free delivery minimum it might be worth considering

Irrelevant to this offer but I do wonder if the prospect of a long term Coronavirus crisis is beginning to have an effect on Ilford's view of the immediate future .

At the very least an attempt to cheer up its customers when the other major companies like Kodak and Fuji seem to be doing so little for customers by comparison can only be helpful to Ilford's reputation

You need to enter the code ‘stockpile’ at the checkout.

Bob given Harman's announcement last night the code actually gave away what was already planned then but most of us. me included, never gave it any thought in terms of it foretelling the immediate future

Just a thought and no more than that here: If demand for film and darkroom products drop off in the crisis as opposed to all customers buying a small stockpile as Ilford has planned for then there may be other offers in the coming months unless all of the stock has expiry dates stretching quite a long way into the future

Hasn't this always been the case, Tony? I get the impression that other than possibly short term special offers from Ilford , it never undercuts its retailers which make it a rival. Each time Ilford has a special offer for a few days I do the same as you and check retailers prices and while on certain items often combined with its free delivery policy at a lower order level than most if not all retailers it can slightly undercut some retailers on some items, it never undercuts the likes of Sharif Photographic who is nearly always the cheapest.

Before anyone tells me, I understand that Sharif may have lower costs, cannot offer the full range and for these reasons may have an unfair advantage
