Oliver, you don't say where you are coming from, presumably from outside Europe? Last year in Italy prices seemed to be about the same as UK although I always take enough film for all my needs from a known supplier, there shouldn't be any problem with amateur quantities and even when I travelled professionally there was no great problem I can remember. I think you will have a hard time finding Agfa film, they went into liquidation last year and there are only the last odds and ends of paper around in the UK and I doubt its any different in the rest of Europe. See http://www.agfaphoto.com/ for info.
