Bob Monkhouse wasn't selling any films in his
Collection they were for his own personal use.

A heavy fine would have been more just but the sentence was obviously intended to make an example of him.

Absolutely agree with Paul. Far better to hit him financially than have the tax payer have the burden of keeping him in the pen at huge cost.
Having said that I am so surprised and disappointed by his actions. Such a pity.

Judges typically have far more information at their disposal before sentencing than the press report,it seems to me that there was much more going on that we're not privy to.

Yes Dominique, they are definitely still active. Some nice lady answered the phone immediately when I rang.
Obviously normal working hours UK time, Monday to Friday.

Try the telephone method Dom if your e mail goes unanswered. Failing that, I will buy one and send it it to you if you like?

See how you get on first by mail and telephone. [Smile]

Thank you, Andrew ! I've sent them an e-mail and will wait until Tuesday (it's school Holiday next week so I will be in Amsterdam on Monday and Tuesday) before considering your so kind offer. Thanks again.

Also Dominique, a new advertisement and a new dealer of Filmguard but it is more expensive than buying it directly from Jack Roe.
(on parity with what Paul was charging for it last.)

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/401066712175?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageNam e=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

I've dealt with this company in the past and found the guy extremely helpful and friendly. So at least it is another, simpler option for you albeit a little more expensive. [Smile]

Ships worldwide also! [Smile]

I had Paul Foster's site on my bookmarks and I just hit his link; it says, "Closed until end of May 2016". I guess that's when his term is over.

Andrew, you mentioned three major players in the UK- I'm trying to learn of all the collectors to buy from. What are the other two? I assume Classic Home Cinema is one.

No doubt Paul will come on the varied forum's to apologize in some manner to help "reboot' his sales which of course, wouldn't be a bad thing to do, sales-wise. If he's wise, (and he has access to PC's in prison, I don't know how the U.K. prison system works or what it allows), he'll keep up with all of this ahead of time.

Paul may not be interested in selling films any longer upon his re emergence Osi.
Equally, he may have absolutely no desire to read what is written here.

Film sales were a minute fraction of what Paul could ever make a living from within his business, so who knows, with other aspects of the business gone, there may be new ventures and new pastures green that lie ahead for him in the future...who knows?

I cannot see things panning out quite in the manner you describe them though Osi, somehow. [Big Grin]
