I haven't developed my own film, but I hear the B&W process is much easier. You might want to start with those ideas / offers you receive.

Back in the day, I developed my own black and white film. Working with digital is so much easier. I still shoot some file, 35 and 120 and get it developed and returned to me in digital format. I do not miss working with chemicals.

I find it funny that you want to buy film and the responses you get have nothing to do with selling you film.

With old sheet film, especially for transparencies, the color balance gets more magenta as it ages. I would need 30 CC green whenever i used the oldest film. This was mostly 8X10 Ektachrome Professional.

I have a few rolls of both 35 and 120 you can HAVE! E me privately so we can set it up.
If you want to do the most easy developing, there are excellent companies out there, I like Bellini for one at

https://www.freestylephoto.biz.

They have a developer for film including C-41 that is reusable! follow the formula and one setup will do maybe 15 rolls! Because the formula gets exhausted. Then it's time for a little math, add a minute or so, the directions are really easy to follow.

I have sheets of film , they were what a printer used for his copy camera. I have no idea if they are good or bad. I opened one box and the film was in a sealed lets say "envelope". So the rest of the boxes , I did not open.

Paul you’ve mentioned you still shoot film. Where do you get the processing done ?

I used to use TheDarkRoom.com. I changed to North Coast Photo. There's still several option, mostly (all?) mail order. There's a mix n match of who pays the postage and the pixel resolution of the JPEG scans. I use the higher resolution option from North Coast, getting files back at roughly 17MP. They post the files immediately for download and the negatives come back a few days later.

Thank you.

And to the OP…my apologies for not responding to your question. I have no film for sale. M using what I have. You may want to try e-bay if you can find someone trustworthy. Good luck hunting!

I have some old film. B&W and color.

ArgusSnap1 Loc: Indiana

Are they photographic films? Was the packaging clear or black when you opened it? I’m interested in photographic film. Thanks

ArgusSnap1 Loc: Indiana

I’m interested. What size and how many rolls? How much would you like for it ? I’m a 70 year old lady teaching a 33 year old friend how to do photography and darkroom techniques. Thanks

Are they photographic film? Was the envelope clear or black to protect from light? What size is it? Thanks
