Why don't you offer it on eBay?

I find Ebay a real pain...

I like to let our photo friends look at it. I have found many here have been great to trade with...

I have bought and sold many items here with no issues. not so much with Ebay!

Have you put film through it to confirm it is in good working condition?

I’m not all familiar with Polaroids, so are film packs still available for this camera?

I did see one of these on eBay that had been converted to take standard film packs priced at $1,000.

This style of camera used roll film, not 'pack' film. That film was completely discontinued around the late 1970's/early 80's.

'Pack' size film (the old lantern size film, and AR 'auto radiograph' plates) are still available as Fuji film.

Their popularity came about as studio photographers used them to check their lighting setup and dial in their lighting and where to make adjustments . You need to remember during the film era you were not able to adjust shutter speed and f stop and see instant results . These cameras allowed you to do that . I remember my instructor was so happy to find one in a pawn shop. A While later polaroid backs came out for popular cameras like the RB 67.

Thank you for asking.
There was film in it when I got it. But it was really outdated. Not sure if you can even get film for this camera anymore...
It is a vintage land camera.

Quoting myself from above:

Polaroid has gone through several iterations and at least one rebirth since originally closing down. They make SX-70 film and type 600 along with some new film for their new cameras. The film for the one here was a Peel-apart film originally with a 60 second developing time (may have had improvements along the way, I didn’t follow it closely). To my knowledge neither Polaroid nor Fuji make film for this camera today. This camera was already “extinct” when Polaroid first closed down and it did not figure in its rebirth.
