Polaroid stopped making film for these a few years ago, along with all its instant film. Then in 2008, a group of 25 former Polaroid employees saved one of the last manufacturing plants in Germany and started making new instant films under the name Impossible Project and since then, the price of these cameras has increased. I picked this one up for $25 on the first day, and sold it on ebay 2 weeks later for $180. This was my first SX70 and since have bought and sold 3, each time fetching more. The last one I sold for $250. Since the film is now readily availably, albeit extremely expensive (8 exposures for $25 at the cheapest). If you see one of these in decent condition, untested you should get $100.
