Going through some old files containing film sales listings I had forgotten that so many of the full-time and part-time sellers of films have disappeared. I know that some have passed away (marked as D), but what about the other firms and people I mention below?
Ken Baker (D)
Capitol
Collectors Club
Cecil Cramp (D)
DCR (D)
Derann (D)
Fletcher
Brian Hemingway (D)
Keith Herbert
Aivar Kaulins
John Morris-Jones
Mountain
Leslie Pateman (D)
Warton Parfitt (D)
LGP (D)
Pinedene
Danny Pitt (D)
PM
Gerald Price (D)
Powell
Bob Sarson
Walton
Barry Wiles
However, it's good that we can still buy second-hand films from the following reputable sources:
Buckingham
Debonair
Paul Foster
David Guest
Tony Hutchinson
Keith Mockett
Grahame Newnham
Ian O'Reilly
Independent 8
Phil Sheard
Geoff Wheeler
Oh. Yes. There is eBay. But, in my opinion, not entirely now a reputable source as it was in its early days before the shysters came along.

Thank you for your extras, however, I never bought anything from them and have no old listings to refer to.

I never bothered too much with Ebay for features, but the titles that interest me don't seem to be coming along now from the dealers. I've had some very good buys in the last two years off Ebay, both in the UK and in the US.
