I placed a bid on a canon xl814 via ebay, only to be sniped the last minute. With all the shipping costs, it was just too expensive.
Alternately, I found 2 cameras on shopgoodwill.com that I won (they were auctioned together). One is a GAF that sells on ebay for about $1 – $11
The other is the camera I really wanted: A Canon 514 XL
Again, I don\’t know if it will work either. At $38 for both, including shipping, I figured it was worth the risk that at least one would function and spin the reel of film I have.
Keeping my fingers crossed, but still continuing the search.
