Downsizing a Perth, Western Australia darkroom. If it's not gone by 4th Dec 2011, it will sadly end up at the council rubbish dump. If interested, please Dead Link Removed me a.s.a.p.

Yes please donate it if you dont find a buyer! it would be a shame to trash it. From what I read darkroom gear, and pretty much anything analog related is quite pricey and hard to find in Australia.
Also It would be very helpful for potential buyers and yourself if you posted the darkroom's main contents that are for sale with prices too!

Thank you jetcode and Newt_on_Swings. I know how hard and expensive it is to find good darkroom gear in Australia.
I'd be very happy to swap it for a good 8x10 large format camera outfit specifically for portraiture.

I recall you posted a list a while ago but emphatically didn't want to split it (a huge quantity of items) up. There were a few things there that I was interested in and I suspect others too - perhaps if you posted the list again and allowed us to pick over it a little before you bin the lot?
The Dead Link Removed has a darkroom still (unless they moved) and a couple of members there are definitely still shooting film. Contacting the club might yield you some local buyers.

Yes, Nicole, if you could please post an edited list from the original one with what's still available, we would appreciate it. Thanks. 
Field trip to WA anyone? 
My dad's got a truck if you guys want to pay for the diesel

Attached are digi mobile phone snaps of some of the dismantled darkroom. I'd prefer of course to sell the Chromega and Durst enlargers with corresponding items as shown.
Please Dead Link Removed me with a respectable offer if you're interested in some/all items. I look forward to hearing from you.
To settle any rumours... I'm a black and white film portrait photographer and loving it. There is another darkroom, this is excess gear.

lucky person whoever scored that box of Kentmere !! very drool worthy
Hi Nicole, does the Durst enlarger have a colour or B&W head? I have a B&W head on my Durst, but would like a colour one.
Nicole, do you have an Otopfe 6X7 negative carrier?

A helping hand to start your new darkroom
All items above are free to photographers wishing to embrace the magic of the darkroom. If you would like help to get started, this is a good start. The catch... must collect.

Thanks, Nicole. Hmmm, long roadtrip, but it's possible....
