Quince in Chicago?

I'm trying to buy some quince, has anyone seen them for sale at a grocery or farmer's market? Thanks for your help.

        Angelo Caputo's Fresh Market in Elmwood Park had a large supply today at 1.19 each labeled as being from California. They did not have any a week ago. Technically not in Chicago but across the street from Chicago on Harlem at the corner with Grand Avenue.

          They're not in season right now, but when they are (earlier in the summer) they always have them @ Devon Market at 1500 W. Devon.
