...stupid! Most of us, I think.
I haven' t anything personal with the seller, I don't know him, but please don't encourage him and buy this 14 years expired stock...
What the hell? $5 says the price, $100 he asks!
Not even a rare Picasso paint can expect such a rise...
..the best part: free shipping! :D

This is the second time I do this! Copy and paste doesn't work in my keyboard!
This sale:

Haha... yeah, it would have been sensible to remove the $5 tag before taking the photo. Not very tactful. :) Maybe it was left on for 'period detail'?

HEy! That's my auction stop making fun of me.





Okay sorry I couldn't help myself. It's not good to cry wolf, anyways, thats ridiculous, is that really $100 for just one cart?

Yes, it is HALs eye! As I know it was a 160 degree lens. It was also used to film the "stand of view" scenes of HAL in 2001.

It's reduced to $50...still more than I'd pay.

I have my stash which will last me into the spring, after which we don't know what the processing situation is anyway...
The government says that by 2010 30% of us will be fat....I am merely a trendsetter :)

Ahhh... The "Photo Drive-up" days.
I'd bet $5 the seller only paid $1 for this. I used to go to all the PDUs in the area, note the expiry dates on their S8 film, and show up shortly thereafter. They sold outdated film for $1/roll. I had a refrigerator full of slightly outdated film when I moved to England, with plans to do a project when I returned.
Then my folks' yard flooded while I was gone, and soaked through the fridge.
supposedly all my film got thrashed, but I'm thinking my mom was sick of dealing with my crap and pitched it all.
Or gave it to this guy! ;)
