    Call FreeStyle, one of Photrio's sponsors, and talk to them. You may be surprised to find that they can be very reasonable. They have come though for me when I had unusual situations.

    Well those are the prices I saw from when 220 first came out until recently. It is nice to know that there are better prices, but the lack of choice of film emulsions helps kill interest in the format. 220 backs are easily obtainable at low prices so even if I have to send a back out for a CLA...

    And you got to use it rather than fritter your time away looking to save money. Many loose track of the important by product.

    Why are photographers so "fussy"?

    No, the whole point of replenished developers is that they are better than the stock developer. Plus what you are proposing as throwing out good chemicals is wasteful, and that in itself is being fussy.
