Music on vinyl is back and now I am hoping film is coming back to!
This shop idea is brilliant and i hope it goes really well and gives others an idea to think about it.
Ebay and Trademe here in New Zealand etc are great for buying films and lamps and parts but to actually see them in a shop would be heaven [Smile]

Cheers from me in New Zealand :-)

Just a quick word to thank David for the welcome and a look at his awesome new stock of films and equipment. It's a long time since I have seen so many 'top shelf' titles on offer and I am sure they will be flying out the door very quickly. Really nice to see 16mm so busy.

I had a thought..oh dear.
One thing we have never seen here is a summer outdoor car boot cine sale. With so much open land that would make a interesting dealer cine event. Just a thought.

Good luck with the shop David, I absolutely love your enthusiasm, if I had a 16mm projector I would be paying you a visit for Flashdance :-), Del.

and before you say it, a 16mm projector is not worth a divorce :-)

Agreed! I have had one once, wouldn't want all that again.
A divorce, that is...not a 16mm projector! [Big Grin]

Great pictures of David's shop. I just wish that it was easier to post photos on this forum. Surely it must be possible to upgrade the site to a more user friendly system? Am I alone in this thinking?

You are not Terry and I have said the same thing myself on many other occasions.

I now do the majority of my technical or screenshot postings elsewhere because of the enormity of the task here and the extreme ease of such elsewhere,even in HD quality that can run into hundreds of images.
