1 roll of expired Acros II for $58

[Patrick Robert James]

I saw Photowarehouse selling rolls of 35mm Velvia for $40. I thought that was outrageous.

I have a bunch of old film and I was thinking about selling it. Might as well. Then buy another Leica. Lol.

Six rolls of expired film for $60? Yeah, I don't think so.

Why not? They come preexpired. That should add something to the value no?

 

[Marcelo Paniagua]

Probably should post my remaining rolls of Plus X on ebay and see how it does

It was a typo. The ad has been updated. The price is for all 6 rolls, not just one.

I just looked and it is now $47.99 for all 6 and not $58 so assuming he meant all 6 rolls all along did he get the $58 wrong as well or is this part of the change a genuine re-think? A 10$ decrease is quite a drop and the figure 58 can hardly be a typo, can it. So yes, he may be geniune but there appears to be a hint that his opening price was the opening price you get on the "bazaar" negotiation

Most likely he lowered the price since noone was interested. Like said, been there done that

The price was always $47.99. Huss added the $10 for shipping to get the $58 in the thread title.

^-- This.

But when no one reads the actual eBay listing, and simply reads the title of this thread, that's what you get.

plus ebay adds tax to the price and to the shipping costs. Taxing shipping seems a bit dodgy...

Thanks I had no idea Huss was part of the price inflation

No problem. This thread is a nothingburger.

I will now proceed to fake outrage.

Both our provincial and federal governments do this - why would the local taxing authorities not require the same from eBay?
It isn't as transparent, but so does your local retailer.
