Any recent nitrate goodies on eBay lately??

PostSun Jun 27, 2010 8:11 pm

I rarely see nitrate eBay auctions these days. My eBay saved searches emails consist of mostly rolls of 35mm camera film now and I don't have time to search the catagories any more.

However, has anyone seen some good nitrate auctions on eBay in recent weeks worth noting? Just wondering. lol

I rarely bid on film anymore but I did win this tonight. :)

These may be soundies, especially the red one, but I figured why not take a chance on the others. :lol: :lol: :lol:

You must pay a fortune for fire insurance.

No nitrate insurance or lawn mower gas insurance or household cleaner insurance. :D

Just a word of warning: storage of cellulose nitrate film on your home property may invalidate your homeowner's insurance. It's best to check with them, first.
