DEAR DENNIS,
        Further back on this thread someone said that Freestyle was selling
Rollei Retro 100 which was supposed to be APX 100.  I bought 20 rolls or 120
film for $63 including shipping which comes to $3.15 per roll.  
        Unless I have been misinformed, why pay $10 per roll for it???
                CHEERS!
                        BOB

I don't know if you are talking about a case of 120 APX 100 or if you  
have been watching the price of it on ebay, but if you are it has  
gotten so valuable that I can't afford not to sell my last 60 rolls.   
It goes regularly at 11 dollars a roll.  I can buy an awful lot of  
ACROS with 660 dollars, something like 225 rolls.   If I had a case of  
120 APX, which I believe is 200 rolls, I would have a hard time  
justifying not selling it while people are still pining away for it.
