  bhphotovideo.com search under Polaroid 600 type film AND e-bay. Probably Adorama Photo in New York City as well.

  The online camera houses are selling out their stock. Try www.freestylephoto.biz . They may have some. And Mark's right about eBay. Polaroid Instant film is going fast and furious there.

  Good idea Chris ! I almost never think of Freestyle. It's a good resource.

BTW Dan, once you get some of this stuff, if you store it properly it should still last quite awhile and well beyond the expiration date embossed on the box (which is something you should ask the seller unless they tell you outright).

Placing the sealed packets in a plastic zip lock bag and tossing that in the freezer works well. I recommend that defrosting takes a day or so at room temp and without removing the package from the manufacturer wrapping and box. Although one or two packs at a time is fine and placing the remaining packs in the same bag back in the freezer in the plastic bag.

In time, you may notice the color starting to become less and less vibrant and exposures seem to be under. At that point, it's probably exhausted and has outlived its usefulness.
See ya !!
Mark
