Agreed! Unless they sell it @ $5 per roll...you won't go wrong with Xtra 400 especially given the timing which you have mentioned...make it 2 rolls!

Crappy? If I am not wrong, Seagull SLRs are based on the likes of the old Minolta X300/700 series of SLRs!

BTW, Cathay Photo sells the Fuji Superia XTRA 400 at $10 for 3 or $3.50 for one.
