Going to do a little testing here, because, quite frankly, I'm sick of idiots who claim to be interested in buying films who then turn out be either psychotic, poor, or just general losers.

Is anyone interested in buying this super 8mm title?

I mean for REAL?

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME A PRIVATE MESSAGE / EMAIL, ETC.

I WILL IGNORE YOU.

If you are interested, please reply here AND ONLY HERE on the forum.

I will answer all and any questions! [Smile]

At the moment, I am one of the poor ones, but if the money was here, I'd take it. Love that film

Sad to not be able to now

Good luck with it

Just curious whats the price on this?

Posted by Tom Photiou (Member # 130) on September 02, 2013, 04:55 PM:

drum roll on the price [Big Grin]

While I might be psychotic and poor, I would too be very interested in hearing the asking price [Smile]

Hi Rob, I'm very interested, and I do have the money to back it up if I'm good with your asking price. Please e-mail me your details. I did just review your earlier item description....

Posted by Maurizio Di Cintio (Member # 144) on September 02, 2013, 06:04 PM:

I beg your perdon, but why don't you just say the asking price? This way everybody can assess whether or not this print is in his range and possibly contact you to let you konw "OK, I want it, how'd you rather be paid"?
I for one would be certainly interested but a lot depends on the price.

Of course your are free to disregard my remarks if what you are thinking about is an auction.

Best of luck

Hi Rob, very interested in this film , as per my previous posts around about the time you first sold this and was having trouble on ebay with some dispute . Down to you now I guess , you have at least two people who want it .

Posted by Rob Young. (Member # 131) on September 03, 2013, 03:08 AM:

Well, the problem is that on ebay there were several bids above £400.00.

The winner made an excuse and never paid.

I've since had a couple of offers for private sale (no one here on the forum [Smile]

) and again and again, when it comes to actually paying, some kind of excuse is found.

Hence my frustration; its like people get a thrill out of wanting to buy the film, knowing full well they can't pay - maybe some folk think I'll feel pity and just give it to them??

Maybe I've just been unlucky?

Alright, £400.00 + shipping.

I'm happy to answer any questions.

I'll also try to find a link to the ebay description. [Smile]

Posted by Joe Taffis (Member # 4) on September 03, 2013, 03:17 AM:

That would be about $700.00 USD shipped. Even though I have the money, that's more than I would be willing to pay for it....

Posted by Rob Young. (Member # 131) on September 03, 2013, 03:51 AM:

No problem, Joe, thanks for your interest and honesty.

Posted by Paul Browning (Member # 2715) on September 03, 2013, 06:28 AM:

Hi Rob ,the link to the sale on ebay is on here, but the bid that won was less than the £400.00 your asking now . OK here's where I am on it , i'll make you an offer based on the final ebay bid and would complete today (Tuesday) if we can agree on that price . Let me just say that I've had dealings with people on ebay and some that advertise on ebay off this site , I will not mess you about , my word is my bond. If you want me to pm then that's no problem either.

Posted by Rob Young. (Member # 131) on September 03, 2013, 07:06 AM:

Paul, you're right, the final bid was £370.00, although there were some brief but retracted higher bids, and I have been offered over £400.00 twice privately, but of course they never transpired.

So, if we say £370.00 flat and I'll included shipping and absorb any PayPal costs.

I'd like to use PayPal if you want to go ahead, as I think that's the safest way for both of us.

I see the description is still on the eBay link, so just make sure you're happy with it all and if you do have any more questions, I'd be glad to try and answer them.

Now on hold for you @ £370.00 via PayPal.

Posted by Paul Browning (Member # 2715) on September 03, 2013, 07:42 AM:

Hi rob, the figure I had in mind was £350.00 inc post ?, you can send me your details via pm , I think that's a fair price considering your detailed and honest description , and no i'm not trying to steal it from you at a knock down price but I have made on offer based on the final ebay bid , I don't think the retracted bids can be considered because to retract the higher bids at such a late stage ,tells me that even they thought they were getting carried away with ebay fever.

Posted by Rob Young. (Member # 131) on September 03, 2013, 08:57 AM:

Oh, go on then, Paul, you smooth talker, you! [Smile]

Yours for £350.00

I'll send you a PM.

Posted by Paul Browning (Member # 2715) on September 03, 2013, 10:20 AM:

Hi Rob , can you send your message to , I have had some problems with the pm box in the past from other forum users , or " i'll be back " to sort it out.

Posted by Rob Young. (Member # 131) on September 03, 2013, 10:25 AM:

Paul, its sent - you might want to scrub your email off the site now just in-case!

Posted by Paul Browning (Member # 2715) on September 03, 2013, 10:56 AM:

Hi Rob , payment sent , I hope this restores your faith in dealing with someone on this forum and ebay !!!!. Like you ,I have no time for " kerbstone millionaires " who talk the talk da da da .All the best mate paul.
