Does anyone know this seller?
He ask twice the amount, I'm willing to pay for this, but he writes the film looks brand new.
If that's really treu, it is probably worth it, although I'm not sure I'll like this film that much, €129.
He sais this about most of his films.

My advice is : A good seller would look at the print and check if it's agfa film stock on each part and tell you precisely how the condition is especially for that price - I would not gamble on UFA films - One part could have great colour other part faded .. be careful.

The boxes look good but no screen shots?

Thank you for the comments.
Glad I did not do it.
The words Brand new were tempting, but I was not sure if I wanted the film itself for that amount of money.
Sometimes a film is great in your memory, but after seeing it back it can be disappointing.
Sometimes it can be even better hahaha.
