I’d be interested to know if I’m the only one who keeps having to deal with very poor packaging on orders from FOTOIMPEX.
Everything always arrived properly packed for me, even though there were some tricky items: 5-litre canisters of developer in the same parcel as paper and film. And usually in large quantities.
Have you ever phoned the Berlin office? I’ve always found a simple and reasonable solution to every complaint.
What I’ve had to deal with was a wrong delivery (wrong film) and CHMs that hadn’t been sealed (that’s history). It was all sorted out easily over the phone.
