ALL TITLES HAVE BEEN TREATED WITH FILMGUARD

Payment, as before, with Paypal (as a gift please). Postage (at cost) is extra and the parcel will be fully insured (unless otherwise requested).

I do this with a sad and heavy heart, but I would prefer overseas buyers to arrange their own collection and shipping please, as I have experienced problems with "International Sales" going missing / delayed in customs etc and, because of my health problems, this has caused a great deal of stress, having to make claims on carriers etc. and my concern for the customers who are waiting.

Thank you for looking at my titles - it is with great sadness that I part with them but I have to be realistic as I cannot get any pleasure from them due to my failing eyesight and I do not want to risk damaging the films or my equipment by using them under the circumstances.

[John Armer]

Hello Keith, thank you for listing - I have sent you a PM.

Wow - what a selection. No wonder you have practically sold them all within 24 hours! Unfortunately I was too slow off the mark to jump in.

[Keith Ashfield]

Rik, sorry about that - it has taken me by surprise! However keep "watching this space" as when I have sorted out the sales from this list there will be a final list put on here. They are mainly documentaries about the film world. Following that (I don't know when yet, there will be items of equipment and accesories to be sold.
Keep watching.........

I can confirm that the films that have been purchased are packed and ready for despatch. I thank all who have been kind enough to take up my reluctant sales.
