Reckon he's been eating plant fertiliser or smoking something herbal, as we say in Derbyshire, "what a total gobshite".

Reminds me of the scene in the Magnificent Seven where the villagers are looking for tough guys to save them from the bandits. One sees a scary guy with scars and wants to enlist him but the wiser one says that they need to enlist the guy who gave him the scars

I repeat, what a plonker!

I think I will pop down to the Pound shop and buy a couple of rolls of Vista and offer them at a cut down price of £150 -no offers taken.

Thanks Mike, I still can't work out whether this Guy is for real or just a joker. I'm wondering whether to offer him an expired roll of Fuji Superia I found in the fridge as part exchange, should be worth at least £300?.

Are they the real f'ing deal? Will they make me swim in warm pools of ecstasy? Will I need to re-mortgage my house? Will I forever regret not ever having used Selochrome? I'm going to call the Samaritans this guy has screwed up my mind, I have a fortune (lots of expired film) in my freezer, a villa in Spain perhaps or a Bentley, decisions....decisions.

I've an outdated five roll pack of Neopan 400 that I intended starting using tomorrow. Perhaps I should save it for my old age. Plus a bag full of long outdated Kodak print and Agfa slide film someone gave me late last year sitting in my darkroom fridge.
Agfa Vista was given as a free film on D&P by a mini lab I used to get my Ilford XP2 done at. Might still be for all I know.

Is this the 120 stuff as in the e-bay ad? I'll be interested in the results. This stuff, once it was no longer produced seemed to gather an almost legendary status on another forum and even amongst knowledgeable photographers what was for sale was at a premium. If it was that good compared to rival products I wonder why Fuji dropped it?

The "bay" quickly seizes on such things in terms of prices asked.
