I have seen this information on a couple of sites and judging by the comments,of which there are many,this is one person who should be avoided at all cost.
The bloke is called SERGEY GAVRILENKO,apparently he claims to have a library of some 3000 films and he always has the one you want.
Operating from the Ukraine,he has ripped of people in this country,Italy,USA to name a few.
I don’t think he is a member on this site,but he is on eBay.
There is a shed load of info on other sites if you care to look.
Anyway please beware!!!

I'm not familiar with the name, but I have seen someone selling English language films from the Ukraine at fancy prices. Thanks for the warning.

Gwyn--thanks for sharing this news...

"Sergey" is not a member of this forum--at least under this name. Maybe unfair to the honest sellers, but I am extremely wary of buying anythin from certain "Eastern Bloc" countries, if you know what I mean....I guess there is also a guy in South Africa selling on ebay who is not exactly good to buy from. He has all sorts of titles but says it will take 90 days for shipping and his rating of a films condition is apparently extremely generous---to say the least.

90 days for shipping is ridiculous. I would be concerned buying any films from South Africa; i'm thinking of the heat and V.S.

I can add another seller to be aware of.

This gentleman is in the UK. It's not possible to name this seller (although I do know his actual name) as he constantly changes his eBay name.

However, look at his address. This is Seaham, a small town in County Durham. The address details he often puts on the bottom of the page is a mixture of his proper home address.

He has attractive items at inflated Buy It Now prices. You may be asked to deal outside of eBay or PayPal. And you may not get what you order. I got caught out good and proper with him four years ago. Most of the 9.5mm films which I received were suffering from rising damp and many had to be thrown away, and the Buckingham 9.5mm projector needed extensive repairs.

He never responded to my letters, and as the deal was outside of eBay there was no chance of an official complaint.

I think I know this one Maurice. I think he set up some Cinema Heritage Fund that failed. Advertises all his films as in top condition.
