Hey, I have had screw ups with them all. I once had someone's wedding pictures in with my pictures from a "professional place". I also have had the "professionals" enlarge a picture using the wrong side of the negative----giving me a mirror image. As for the "amateurs", I will never take film to a grocery store for developing again...the negatives were cut through the middle, instead of at the end, for every strip. They said it was an equipment problem. I have been present when many people learned that the "superstore" lost their pictures, even with one hour developing, but thankfully, it hasn't happened to me, yet. The moral: You take your chances anywhere. Margie S.
