Richard offered:
>>Aha, this is why it's so great to get into darkroom right now. Every one
else is leaving and you can buy stuff for a song! I got my 16x20 Nova
Processor  for $250 and I think I could have gotten it even cheaper from
someone else. 16x20 archival washer? $150. Durst M605 with colorhead? $150. 
Rodagon 50/2.8 APO? $200. Rock solid top of line Saunder 4 blader easel? 
$80.<<<<

The most expensive item I bought new is the Analyzer for ~$450? The total
setup cost is about the R2400 printer. Paper is still cheap comparing to
the Inkjet.<<<<

So Richard what yer saying is, like this is a really bad time for me to sell 
off my Leica darkroom, trays and all the tanks, reels etc etc and all the 
other stuff?
