Bulk printing 35mm photos

    Hey,

    I'm looking for a cheap place to print my 35mm photos in order to sell them.
    I heard Harvey Norman have a printing service but I'm not sure if they're that old skool.
    I feel Conn's/John Gunn will deliver with quality, but might charge a fair bit for their service. I'm looking for something in between.
    Any ideas?

    Any help appreciated.

    Have you considered buying your own film scanner if you have enough it might make sense.

    or renting a scanner

    I should have mentioned that I've got my own Epson Perfection 4990 and I scan my negatives each time I get them back from developing.

    If you're looking to sell them, you probably want to pay a few extra pennies pretty print for good quality printing. If they're not taking good care of their chemistry, prints will silver and/or fade over time, annoying people who purchase them. They're also just going to look better.
    If you've scanned and tweaked your photos, you probably want prints to look like what you've seen on screen, and to stay looking that way. The best way to do that is work with the same lab all the time, and generate custom color profiles for all their equipment & paper combinations that you might use, I'd they can't already provide those.
