B&H Photo-Video in New York City will be closing on Friday for the religious holiday of Succos, the "sweetest festival." They will not be accepting orders from Friday, October 2nd through Sunday, October 11th. If you need anything, best get your order in by Thursday.

That link doesn't work for me. And, oddly enough, I came to TOP just so I could go to B&H! I need (err... want) a fuji instant back for my 4x5.

Chris,
Should be fixed now. Sorry. And thanks for letting me know!

This is a measure of B&H's prominence. Every other retailer might get a notice when they open. B&H gets one because they're closed.

This is one the reasons I like B & H so much - how many other retailers would try and find a way around closing their business for so long? But, I've always liked the shops that close down for a week or so while the owners go on vacation, so maybe I'm just weird.

I think it is great that B&H closes to observe a holiday for the Jewish faith... My only question is, do I get an extension on my return policy of 15 days? I just received a flash on Friday from B&H and it seems to show signs of short circuiting, so I want to exchange it before the 15 day policy is up. I now have to wait 7 days and hopefully I don't use up my return policy timeline. Is this extended in the case of holidays?

Sean,
We could ask, but...well, they're closed.
