Dear Simon,

As you know, there was a bug in SFX distribution. All 120 roll films were out of date since june 2006. My question is : is that film really out of date (old stock) or packaging problem?

Thanks for answer . I have bought 6 of these films...

Dear Aurelien,

I have checked it out, the recent manufacture was all one batch, expiry date Jan 2009 so I guess someone sold you old stock.

One nice detail about the old 120 stock (sorry, Ole): they still have the mint taste! (At least my own old stock has).

(Still, when I receive my order, I certainly hope it's fresh stock.)
