Hi Jim,

I have and use about eight Gra"f"matic holders. :-)

They are the greatest as they don't attract dust and it is nice to have six 
sheets available all at once.

I was lucky in that I bought several from a retiring photographer and with 
them I got two boxes of extra unused (new) plenums. Be careful with the 
plenums, they are easily bent, especially if you forget to push the counter 
slide back into the head of the holder before attempting to load the 
plenums and close-up the holder.
