He must have either a very big apartment with very little space left or a huge storage container to fit all this in...

I know I wouldn't even try to bring that many home...
Even if I love Polaroids, they almost all have only one problem: they can't be folded.

Years ago, when I first moved to NYC and had to have roommates (whom I couldn't trust), I used to keep my cameras in a trunk that they couldn't see was nailed to the floor from the inside. Anyone who'd try to move it would do themselves an injury trying to lift it (or even slide it.) ;D

Tourist spot camera - for Niagara Falls , Mount Rushmore, and similar in the background... But, does he have one of these?

Soo. How much would the price be for a pack of film for every single one? I dont have the heart to calculate it.
