[sincere]

Holidays? What holiday and for how long?

 

[EBphotography]

BH has the odd habit of closing down it's website for small periods of time. :greenpbl:

That store must be a nice place to work at.

It's the Yom Kippur Holiday. They might reopen next week.

 

[sincere]

Anyone?

A lot of the camera shops in New York closed yesterday at noon. Some of them will re-open on Monday. B&H will not re-open until October 6, I believe. You might try Cameta and there is always Calumet.

Hehehe... so my goyishe friends, you're learning the Jewish holiday calendar...

As of today it is Sukkoth, a nice quasi-Thanksgiving festival where we sit outside in a hut and see the stars, and think about food, wine, and what law-school we'll be sending the kids to.

Coming up next (well, almost next): Simchat Torah, a particularly fun holiday. The Torah is finished, and we scroll back to The Beginning.

Maybe we ought to sticky this, Adorama and many other places have the same schedule...:

Rosh HaShanah: 13 September 2007 (Thursday)
Yom Kippur: 22 September 2007 (Saturday)
Sukkot: 27 September 2007 (Thursday)

Purim: 21 March 2008 (Friday)
Passover (Pesach): 20 April 2008 (Sunday)
Holocaust Remembrance Day (Yom HaShoah): 2 May 2008 (Friday)

Adorama keeps the same schedule, IF? This little shiksa was not aware of that.

To the OP: Freestyle keeps fairly routine business hours and ship worldwide, too. Excellent company.

 

[sincere]

thanks you guys, will look into these places.

Have made all my major photo purchases at B&H and would wait for them to open, I think it's well worth it to buy from them.
