This is interesting and apparently there are a few bidders that are curious as to what this could be.....

Not just containers, as there is film in at least one of them. It would be fun to see if this is a rare bit of film, or if it is simply film cans with Star Wars markings...

We'll probably never know....

This Star Wars film (above link) had 23 bids and sold for $2,123.00......But of course who knows if the winning bidder will actually pay. Just goes to show the length some collectors will go for an item.....

Greg, if you find out what’s in the tins let us know on here.I can’t get the link to open here.Silly money though still might be something special 😁📽

I also could not open the link. Perhaps Greg could tell us about the sale.

Hello Maurice and Gwynn,

I appreciate you letting me know the link wouldn't work for you. Not sure why it wouldn't, but I took some screen caps of the photos in the listing to share here.

Basically, it looks like two small film cans with Star Wars production markings. No images of the actual film frames, nor even verification the films inside are actually "Star Wars" footage of any type. So it was obviously a blind gamble to bid on these with such little info to go on. I suspect if it isn't what was hoped for by the buyer, he/she will return it to Goodwill.

For those not familiar, the seller is the online store for "Goodwill Industries" which is a nationwide network of local charity thrift stores. Perhaps they are in the UK and other countries, but essentially people donate their used goods to the local Goodwill store and these are resold at the physical store--typically at low cost, or listed online through "shopgoodwill.com" as these two items were. I have found a few bargain items such as projectors, lenses, and 16mm and Super 8 films via the online store, but sometimes prices are bid up to excess, as we have here.

Anyway, here are some pics:

Thank you, Greg.
It seems doubtful that anyone paying $2,123.00 would deposit them back to Goodwill if the contents were not as expected. No doubt they will turn up on eBay.
We have many charity shops on our High Streets in the UK. I believe that Oxfam sells on-line.

Yes, I wouldn't be surprised to see it on ebay at some point. I meant to say, return for a refund to Goodwill--although that may not even be possible.
An awful lot of money for a small spool (reel) or two of film....I am not even sure "insane" is the right word for this......

Thanks Greg for your post showing the photos and description of the film.Personally I would not touch that with a barge pole still would be interesting to know the outcome for that money.
Thanks📽
