    I speak for many when I say we are glad you are not just tossing it. I have what I need, but there is a growing call for film photography equipment, including darkroom equipment, as more folks get interested in it and others come back to it. Much of it is no longer manufactured at all. I hope it all finds a good home. Thanks for coming here. Maybe you'll get some private messages from those with interest.

    Also, it's helpful to put your location in your bio. I have taken in a large amount of darkroom gear from people just wanting to get rid of it, and found homes for it, going to students, hobbyists, schools, etc.

    Hi Tin, no matter how you are badly treated, try to stay positive and find a way to make it work. What you learn from your experience should be something better than what you are right now.
