You should mention clearly that you are referring to the ebay sales packing of 10 rolls of 35mm film. Otherwise you give wrong impression that 1 roll coasts US$30 - US$60.

yes, that's probably for 10 rolls. a good black and white film could cost anywhere between USD5-10, i guess. A roll of Ilford Delta 400 should be around $5-6 depending on where you buy. i'm not a fan of Tri-X so i'd recommend you use T-Max instead, which will also cost around $6 or so. I always buy my film online

Where do you buy from? So far from my quick research I though macodirect and Freestyle photo are the cheapest.
 

freestyle photo, 3 bucks for the quality of tri-x =D

u can try arista premium. its tri-x in disguise. can push to ISO 1600. just increase your development time accordingly.
