I have to agree with everything Gary says about Ricky. I had a print of "Aladdin" from him and it's excellent. All I can say is, if you are thinking about buying any film on his list, don't hestitate - get on and do it. You won't be dissappointed.

I honestly wish I could. It's that postage that's the killer, and I'm sure Ricky can't do too much about it. I mean, hey, U.K. postage for a 3 or 4X600 is about 15 pounds, and even that is 30.00 american dollars.

Despite common knowledge to the contrary, not all americans are rolling in the dough, so, in my case, I literally have to wait until a print I've wanted from the U.K. becomes available on ebay or from a private seller in america.

in the three years that I have been back into the Super 8 collecting business, (concerning U.K. shipping and beyond), I could have bought approximately TEN Derann features brand new.

I know that this kind of discussion had been done ad nauseum, but hey, 35 pounds is 70.00 american dollars in shipping. It really does add up.

Oh, and I like brown and grey stripe equally, but I prefer candy stripe!

Hey Osi - Who's this "Candy Stripper"? Is there anything we should know? Was she in "Naked Gun"? [Wink] [Wink]

I'm up for the candy stripe too. [Big Grin] My Xenon whispered to me that the candy stripe is a bit of a challenge and that providing I changed the bias as the strip changed colour she would still do a good recording [Big Grin]

GS1200 Xenon with Elmo 1.0...great combo along with a 16-CL Xenon for that super bright white light.

Ah, yes, the infamous candy stripe... I too heard that recording on it results in a very sweet sound [Big Grin] but it's sticky business, you want to keep that stuff lubricated really well [Big Grin]

Candy Stripe is quite good. I do remember a lovely lassie (before me wifey) by name of Candy.

It really is interesting that girls with the name of "candy" do tend to be rather, shall we say "energetic"

by the look my wife is giving me, I'd best leave Candy in the past. Sample some candy for yourselves lads!

Damn, what was this topic about.

JEROEN, You have email [Smile]

ROY, Exactly the titles listed on the first page of this post and I'd have to wait until you have chosen a title so that I can weigh it and get a quote from the Post Office on the price of Shipping to the USA.

Best Regards,
Ricky

Ricky - How's the color on your scope print of 2001? I'm thinking about it but the color would have to be vibrant. Thanks and please let me know.

Hi,
I'm new here, although I've been lurking for a while not really knowing where to start! This seems a good place.

Ricky, I am interested in your print of The Sound of Music if still available. I'd be grateful if you could e-mail me with the details.

Thank you,

Jonathan
