That's what was stamped on three envelopes that were sent to Fuji and returned to my local Rite-Aid. a couple weeks earlier I had taken in some b&w and wrote on the envelope "develop only, no prints, do not cut negs." I received back exactly what I wanted and it was only $1.50. Who needs to develop their own when it is that cheap.
Then I took in another roll of b&w and two rolls of color print. They were returned with nothing done to them. What gives? They are being sent again and the store manager is calling Fuji to ask for clarification. You folks have any ideas?

Last time I sent out black and white at Rite Aid it cost an arm and a leg and looked like crap. Last time I sent out E6 with them they processed it in C41 :bang:
I've had good luck with Precision Camera although I'm not sure what develop only would cost. $1.50 is a pretty darned good deal and you'd probably be better off waiting to see if the manager can get it sorted out. If that fails, home developing is probably the most cost effective for black and white.

Why yes Ma'am - it folds
My understanding is that Fuji is processing Color & BW C-41 films only. Any other B&W films that don't call for the c-41 process don't get touched. Could be wrong, but that is my understanding.

I just picked up some 120 c-41 from Rite Aid and looks OK per usual. I also just dropped off my first roll of 120 e-6. We'll see what happens with that. Hopefully, you'll be able to get this straightened out--and that it's not a Rite-Aide-wide thing. I'd hate to have to start paying more than $1.85 for 120c-41 developing and prints!

I picked up the 2 rolls of color today. The b&w wasn't in. Even though they were marked again with "develop only, do not cut negatives", they came back with 2 sets of prints and the negatives cut. There was a note that said "process only no longer available." Huh? Isn't that like Starbucks telling me I must get whipped cream on my mocha. "I have to do the extra step and put whip on your coffee sir."
One roll was from my pano adapter for my Mamiya 7. For some reason, they did not mess up the negatives when they cut them, yet I did get 2 sets of completely unusable prints.
Of my 5 attempts at sending out to Fuji, only once did they get it right. I won't be doing it anymore.
PS: Rite Aid did not charge me for the prints. Each roll was priced over $10 from Fuji!
