Apparently they showed up for work this morning only to find they were now unemployed and the stores closed.

Calumet USA is very very definitely out of business permanently.
The big question is - can the European side manage to continue ?
Equally - when folk find out - as I did - about the USA side - will anyone actually order any stock from the European outlets ? There was absolutely no warning given in the USA

Got this back
Took everyone off-guard including their employees. Talk is that they will be dissolving the business entirely. All their US social media accounts have been deleted as of today.

After 75 years of business it is with a heavy heart that we announce our immediate closing in the United States (our European stores will continue). It has been a joy to share our passion for photography with you all of these years. We'll miss each other and we'll miss all of our customers. Thank you for everything.

We had "Edinburgh Weather" today. As in the old expression, "if you don't like the weather in Edinburgh, wait for 10 minutes".

here's the latest

And more link
And another comment from my friend that used them until about 18 months ago when he said service was still very very good - staff helpful but prices were no longer competitive
Apparently so, since they were a large photo retail chain that was only bought out a few years ago, expands then goes belly up overnight.
