[LargeFormat] 8x10 Korona on eBay

[Les Newcomer]

"Besides, you can enlarge 8x10..."

No. 8x10 can be enlarged, but I've got a 6.5 ceiling in my basement and
a wife that refuses to let me punch a hole in the room floor so I get my
5x7 Omega E up an running. I'm not even gonna think about an 8x10 Durst,
even though I had a chance to buy one for less than a 5x7 durst. 

Yes I know 8x10 can be enlarged but the darkroom set up to process and
enlarge 8x10 is a lot more than an 8x10 2D  a Tessar and an old dagor.

I was kinda shocked when the reason he said he'd thrown in the towel
was.. too big to carry, not big enough on the wall!
