Has anyone made contact with these people to see if this is legit and if so, what prints etc it includes?

Just seems a little suspect to me......and im not keen on phoning up and getting charged £10 per minute to speak to some guy called Sydney :wink: haha.

I rang, bankrupt stock in the tens of thousands apparently. 50p to £1.50 depending on size. No detail on subject matter or quality, you turn up and buy what you want. No minimum quanity. Not prepared to email any images. For me it's too far to go and have a look, if it's a load of old crap. If you live near Telford it would probably be worth your while having a chat.

Im in exactly the same boat as Dave, Rang up this morning and got some info but did find it strange that he couldnt email me atleast a few pics of some of the prints they were going to send out?
Kept saying to come down and have a look....and he's sure I wouldnt leave without spending money? Kept talking about hundreds of thousands of prints and he would do me a deal on the whole lot? Yeh, im sure you would.haha.
All a little strange to me. Surely if its that easy (as he was telling me on the phone) to sell and make a fortune, he would be doing it all himself?

Told him I would keep in touch.

Will let you know what else comes of it....if anything does.
