WOLF CAMERA SUCKS!! Photogs .. who processes your film??
:feels-hot I just dropped off two B&W rolls (T-Max) at Wolf Camera and they call me 20 min later to tell me that they processed them with the color chemicals and ruined them. I'm sooo pissed because anybody who knows the main two types of NOTHING alike .. these pics were of one of my best friend's wedding, and are irreplaceable .. I didnt even bring my digital because I wanted to use my SLR. :waaaaahh
UGH .. anyways .. I always though Wolf was the best place to develop my prints, I'm not sure I can trust them again. Anybody have another option? (Besides a buying DigitalSLR, I am saving up for one... ) |
I would have been mad also if that was me.
|
Is there any image recoverable from the negs? I seem to recall about people deliberately "cross processing" to come up with some unusual effects...
|
BTW since moving away from standard consumer negative film I only go to a professional lab. It costs more, but it's worth it.
|
never use film its nice be too expensive.

Are they offering you any compensation? (Besides two replacement rolls :321GFY ) |

The receipt they gave me when I dropped them off stated that was all I'm entitled to. I dont know what else to do :feels-hot |
That sucks man. Sorry to hear about that.

ps .. I'm a girl .. dont need you to be thinking a guy cried for 20 min over losing wedding photos :( |
Damn that really sucks bad.
Wolf is supposed to be one of the better places to go. Fucking stupid tech should be fired. |
Yeah, I think it should be taken further. It wasn't accidental damage, rather pure stupidity.
|
Thanks Boneprone .. I know the guy deserves to lose his job .. but I know he would never do it again, I could tell he was honestly sorry when I started sobbing on the phone .. Everybody deserves a 2nd chance ..
I'm going to talk to the manager when I go back tonight .. but there isnt anything they can offer me that would make up for this. |
I hope they can do SOMETHING about this.....all the frickin' sobbing around the office is driving me crazy, tear stained keyboards, snot on the monitors, the wailing and weeping, the rending of hair.......

It'll cost you money, but look for a good pro lab to process the important stuff (like wedding pics). There should be several in S. Florida. Check for the places that still process E6 (slide film). They'll handle your film like it's there own.
For B&W, you can process it yourself as well. It's not very hard and the chemicals are pretty cheap. |

Buttr, I would go to a pro shop. Ask to get the actual film back and take it to a pro shop and see what they say. It's worth a shot. |

Damn, you're RIGHT! I ALWAYS forget the gnashing...... |
I've always heard good stuff about them but mistakes happen. Sorry for your loss...

Once that film is destroyed.. is gone..
but wolf has always been good for me. I alos ( believe it or not ) love costco's lab. Most of my pro prints are from there. Great quality and awesome prices. If you lived close to south beach i would tell u to come down and have dinner with me... errrrr.. i mean come down to the labs down here, as they are pretty good too and not that more expensive than wolf. - D |
