For Trade Trade - my 35mm film retriever for a roll of 120 film?

[keithostertag]

I have this stainless steel 35mm film retriever that's been sitting around my place for years... but I don't shoot 35mm anymore! Includes instruction sheet.

Wondering if someone might be interested in trading me for one roll of 120 roll film (B&W or color C-41). Maybe two rolls of expired film?

USA only.

Thanks,

Well to bad it's US only. I need one of those.

Sorry Eric- it is just too much trouble and expense to ship across the border for such a small item. I did spend some time looking at my USPS.com site and I can't even figure out the best way to mail it to you... since it is not completely flat it would need to be a 'package', and it ain't cheap. These are sold on eBay for around $10-$15, maybe look there?

All you have to do is put it in envelope and drop it in the mailbox.

PM your phone number I have all kinds of MF film I could send you.

It pays to be a little insistent!

with little practice, a bottle opener will open a 35mm film canister. must be done in complete darkness of course.

Usually, this method destroys the canister. If you want to reuse it, you need a retriever.

I also have a lot of 120 film and would be interested in this.
