Well, once again i am letting myself down as i am unable to attend, with the possibilty this could be the last, (fingers crossed it wont though), it does make me feel a little ashamed. With so many people coming from overseas as well this would have been my oppertunity to ask so many people so many questions for the MAG. All i can say is sorry for not being there, but i know it'l be great and i wish everyone a very happy Ealing day. I will look forward to reading about it and seeing some pictures on the website.

Looks like this BFCC could set a record for the number of European visitors, and maybe overseas visitors overall, which would be fantastic in this day and age.
I've heard that Classic Home Cinema MIGHT (not confirmed) have have one or two new releases not previously available, so check out their stall and let's hope that Phil S does good business and is encouraged to keep on releasing new product.

Can anyone tell me how the bring and buy works at BFCC. Is there a charge per item? - from the selling point of view I mean.

It works as follows: You take the items to the stall and they are booked in on a list indicating the price - which is also indicated via a label on each item. You then pay a £1 'booking in fee' that covers everything. At the end of the day, or before you leave, you return to the stall and the team check what has been sold. You then get all the money less 10% commission, and take the unsold items. A very good service!

Not sure if you'll see this beforehand, but there's no limit. But if anyone is taking large numbers, it's good to complete the list first, as otherwise the booking in can take a long time and the queue builds up.
