Need some. How many do you have, and how much? Looking for metal (preferred, but plastic is ok), light tight (obviously) and cheap. B+H is out of stock, Adorama only has them individually, and shipping from freestyle negates any savings from loading my own. I'll pay cash (paypal), or I have tons of stuff for trade, just tell me what you'd like.
Thanks. Someone else Pm'd me a US ebay seller that has 10 for $17 (incl shipping), which is perfect. I just can't figure out why I didn't find it in my earlier searches.
Most mini labs use an extractor to get the leader out of the cassette and cut the other end of the film with about 1/2 an inch protruding from the cassette.
They then dump the cassettes.
If you offer to take their cassettes away for free you will have a selection of DX coded cassettes... For free!
You can butt your bulk to the protruding tongue both sides (ie top and bottom) with good quality pressure sensitive tape...
Lots of my chums do this, without problems, I don't cause I mostly use velvet less concentric cassettes.
