Edit: By the way, I wasn't being funny about it when I said 'back in July', I was just referring to when I remember you speaking about it and had always wondered how it was going.

Ha no worries, I didn't think you were being funny

Things have slowly been moving along, I have been in contact with a few distribs (thanks Phil

) and I have stock waiting for me, but not enough to make a start. Problem is that most of the distributors are playing funny buggers and asking for extortionate amounts of money for films that can be bought a lot cheaper on amazon and I'm working with a limited budget so I have to be careful and not rush into things. Also I have had to put it on hold for a minute due to personal matters.

It doesn't matter, I only want it to fill the set, I already have the dutch dvd. Orgasmo Nero III only has german and Italian audio (I could pretty much figure out what was going on in that one

)

I know where I can get DSOAM for a decent price.

Yeah, I imagine it is a pretty expensive venture. Would it be worth setting up an ebay store or something first? Like, just buying stuff directly from Amazon etc, like a few copies of each title and seeing how it goes, and then if you find things selling pretty well you could move onto a proper store but if not you've not lost out as your not left with lots of unsold stock, lack of money etc.

I have done all that, but I ran out of stuff to sell and I couldn't really afford to keep paying e-bay £I5 each month.

I do know what will sell but I just need to continue negotiating with the distribs and get them to knock down their prices.

I have some really good stuff lined up
