Film people; Nikkormat, RoyReed, Mr.Bishie, weltweit?

Or just old people who remember how film works tbh

How do I know if a roll of film has been used? If I can't see any film, it's all been rolled in?

I tried this but not sure what it's telling me The Big Film Database for analog photographers - Search by DX number, code or name

It might be from when I was in Colombia/Ecuador in the late 90's/early 2000s. Is it worth trying to get it processed or will it all be degraded or something?

Where is good to get that done?

Thanks

If it's completely wound in to the cassette it's almost certainly been used. You can get it processed (C41) here:

FilmProcessing.co.uk | Online Store

Process your films with filmprocessing.co.uk! Just select your service and you're well on your way. Getting your films processed and photos printed couldn't be easier!

It'll cost £5 for processing and £8 for high quality scans sent to Dropbox (there are lots of other options). Kodak Gold was relatively tolerant of poor exposures, so I would expect it to still be worth a punt even after 30 years.

As above; assuming it's not been kept in dire conditions, it would be worthwhile having it processed.
