126 film holder/adapter made for Epson Perfection 4870 Scanner

Description

This is a 126 film format negative holder for use with the Epson Perfection 4870 scanners (US Patent Pending).
This was CAD designed and manufactured for use with the obsolete 126 film format introduced by Kodak in 1963.  Used commonly in Kodak "Instamatic" cameras, production of 126 film ended in 2008.  126 film was actually 35 mm in width so technically an Epson 35 mm OEM holder will work with them.  The issue is that the image 126 cameras recorded was square and was also offset on the negative by 5 mm in height.  Thus trying to scan a 126 negative in a 35 mm holder will result in cropping of the original image.
Important: Our film adapters for flatbed scanners are not designed to be used with uncut filmstrips.  You may need to cut your film to adapter length for proper use.
Aftermarket holders for odd film sizes will usually require the ability to manually scan film strips with "thumbnail" modes turned off.  Depending on your model and software, masking of individual frames for scanning may be necessary for the best results.  Please ensure you know how to set your scanner/software for full manual control.
Specifications for the 126 negative holder:
Scanning window: 179 x 29.45 mm
Material:  Solid Plastic
Features:  slide in and lock down top that helps keep film as flat as possible for scanning
SPECIAL NOTE FOR INTERNATIONAL BUYERS
:  Ebay has recently changed rules for international buyers.  If you are buying multiple items from the same seller you can no longer combine shipping.  Ebay will also require you to pay immediately so I am not able to send you an invoice for combined shipping.  Unless something changes (or unless you know of a way to combine shipping that I haven't found yet), your only option is to buy and pay for each item separately.  This will likely result in overpayment of shipping charges.  I always refund overpayment of combined shipping charges, but unfortunately Ebay charges sellers a 10% commission on the original shipping charge and will not refund the difference.  I will continue to refund overpayment of shipping on multiple items, but in the future I will have to deduct the 10% commission that Ebay sticks me with.  I apologize for the inconvenience.  Hopefully Ebay will change this practice soon!
Satisfaction is guaranteed!

Important additional notes:
- If you are buying my holders for resale, please be aware that my products are more about "function" over "form."  This is why they are so inexpensive compared to other commercially produced options.  Each holder is custom made and may contain spot sanding and other finishing marks.  I do my best to clean my products up cosmetically, but due to sales volume I simply can't spend a lot of time on it.  My main concern is that it works like it is supposed to.  As a result, if you are reselling please be aware that you may need to do some more finishing work suitable for a retail environment.
- Please pay particular attention to the "handling" days before shipping as noted above.  I do not typically maintain an inventory of my film holders as most are custom made upon order placement.  As such, I ask for 5 business days handling before shipping.  My average is likely around 2 days, but there are occasions where orders are very high and I may need all 5 business days before I am able to ship your holder.  Please keep this in mind.
