Had to share... guys name is : Matthew Kurtin

Caveat- I don't know this guy, so can't vouch for him, but I know these films will find a good home with some of you folks.

Huge Film Sale! Rare Film Stocks! Cold STORED!!!!

Alameda, CA
Time to empty out the freezers a bit. I don’t shoot much slide or color film anymore so it’s time for these amazing stocks of film to move on to others that will put them to use. Everything has been stored in a freezer since purchase. Some of these are from the early 2000s, but most the film I’ve purchased I bought from people I know locally that I physically took the film out of their freezer. Of course I can’t make guarantees with expired film, but you should have confidence in these films, especially if you’ve bought from me before!

Everything will be shipped via usps flat rate priority. Only shipping within CONUS unless you’re making a very large purchase bc I don’t really want to go to the post office....sorry! I’ll pay the PayPal fees, you pay the shipping! Now....to the film.

NOTE: some films have varying expiration dates....I’m just going to give the newest stuff to the people who buy first so please don’t ask for specific years. It’s all been stored the same.

LOOK AT THE LIST. IF IT SAYS ITS SOLD, SOLD! And if I didn’t list it for sale, it’s not for sale.

I'm not impressed with 135 prices at all. Far from amazing for expired film.
I checked Neopan prices on ebay and they have offerings for less. Same deal, they pay PayPal fees, buyer -shipping.

What I thought as well. $20 per roll for expired Neopan?
 
Appreciate the effort Carterofmars, but will pass.


Got more confident on RF forum that random guy posting things on FB.

I am convinced there are folks out there who genuinely think film is no longer produced. Old expired color film stocks, especially Portra NC/VC, keep going up in price, despite getting more and more out of date, and worse overall in results. And fresh Portra can be purchased for less, and you can color grade it to whatever terrible results you want.

So I listed a bunch of the stuff I had in the freezer (that was given to me, no less) on FB a while ago and sold it for like $15 a roll! Thanks guys, got some actual fresh film with the proceeds.

Let the silly folks buy their film. I don't think most of it gets shot - I think it gets put into the fridge until the next round of price hikes and silliness, to which it moves on to the next fool.
 
I would suggest buying new film stock from Kodak. They make excellent films, stand behind their products, and it's good to support film sellers like that. Buying expired film never made any sense to me because the cost savings was seldom that big. If you like it for unusual special effects, that's fine, but the value and consistency are not there for most people. The expiration date is there for a reason. Besides that, who knows how the film has been stored?
 
Are these supposed to be great deal prices?


I seem to be doing well with my film purchases then :)
