I have been trying, without success, to get replies from Urbanski Film of Orland Pk, IL, and Tex's Surplus Sales of Houston.
Does anybody know if they are still trading, or perhaps gone out of business. Or is it that they neither want to do business with a potential customer in the UK?

Maurice,

Urbanski is still trading as l just placed a order last week for more archive film cans.
He did take a week or so to reply to my email request.

Jason
Thank you for your reply. I couldn't find his email address so I sent him a good old paper letter via air mail. It had my home address and also my email address so there was no excuse not to reply to me.
I was trying to buy an owner's manual for a projector which was listed on his web-site.

Maurice...if you click on the "orders or inquiries" link on the Urbanski.com homepage it is a mailto link. The address is orders@urbanskifilm.com. I just talked with Larry a few days ago... he's doing a tuneup on one of my Elmo 16CL projectors.

Thank you, Janice. I'll send Larry an email. Perhaps he didn't get my letter. I wonder if he reads this Forum.
Perhaps next time you speak to him you might kindly remind him that I trying to make an order.

I am now very pleased to say that I have received a reply from Larry and I have now submitted my order.
Many thanks to all members.
