At the moment all has been sorted out. The confusion came from this
earlier post:

Actually there are three possible versons of y2K-something film. Pre
2004 Y2K2 (the lightest of all) will have wide bands of gold and purple,
just like the ebay photo of current auction. Pre 2004 Y2K (not Y2K2) may
have some gold, but will predominantly, usually show neon greens, blues,
darker purples. *That pre-2004 Y2K will usually be 25-30% lighter than
Y2K2*, but both weights (reportedly) came off same jumbo roll. Beginning
in 2004, another Y2K roll became available, and was slightly heavier
than the above Y2K, and therefore not as colorful--pale purple and pale
greenish. That (2004) Y2K is essentially the same weight/color as OS
film from Alan C, which is still available.

Confusion in regards to the part in bold which says *"That pre-2004 Y2K
will usually be 25-30% lighter than Y2K2*" and I listed it as Y2K2 film,
which it is but mine is early Y2K2 film which is the light stuff. So
they thought they were bidding on the wrong version of Y2K film.
