I want to publicly say a big "thank you" to Steve Osborne for trading with me in regard's to my Buhl len's kit. Steve sent me up a 16mm print (LPP) of Irwin Allen's tv movie "Fire". Now I have both tv movie's he produced on LPP. The other one I have is "Flood" with Robert Culp. I gave him the len's kit for the movie and Steve only asked for the postage.

If you read this Steve many thank's again for trading!!!

All The Best,

--Tom [Smile]

Steve's top-of-the-line, bar none. Been scribbling a column for his sharp publication many years, dating back to the 80's - THE finest tradesman and dealer around - And that's from Shorty

Steve Osborne is, without a doubt, the best person to do business with when it comes to the super 8 hobby. He really goes beyond the line when it comes to making sure his customers/fellow collectors are satisfied. Top billing for Steve!

Not only all the praise listed above ...

Steve will surprise you with things you never expected. many a time I have bought a feature from him, and he (knowing my cartoon preferences) will send a FREE cartoon from time to time, (more often than not).

Though I love other sellers as well, honestly, NO ONE else actually does such things anymore. It's those little touches that really stun me about Steve.

Hey Shorty, watch for Optical Sound Features, part 3 in the next issue of "Reel Images". I don't know if he'll print my article, "In Search of Hoppity" in the next issue. If not that one, it'sll be in a future issue!

Yikes !

Probably a bad choice of wording and a misunderstanding on my part - no attack intended at all Tom.

I was under the impression that after several years he took the lens back and it all ended happily - perhaps Im confused.

My comment was intended to communicate that most sellers would not want to deal with anyone's return after such a long period of time had elapsed, and that Steve was a good man to do so - it was not an attack

once again - my apologies
