Simple: Charge a consultation fee. You're providing a service and they should pay for it. Bruce NJ On Tue, Apr 20, 2021 at 10:23 PM Jeffrey Brace via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
We won't be needing the monitors any more.
OK. Everyone looks like the Technical Advisory convinced them that the Commodores were wrong for the set, so they are going with some sort of terminals. Oh well.
Sorry to bother everyone with my request for monitors. I cancel my request.
These set dec buyers are really getting to annoy me with requests that I research and then find. Then they change their mind and never tell me.

Hello everyone,
VCF was contacted by a TV show for a prop rental. They need 30 Commodore 64, 30 Commodore 1541 drives and 30 Commodore 1702 monitors.
I already have the C64 and 1541 covered.
We only have half of the monitors. Can anyone lend VCF monitors? They start filming in May, so it's likely that they will need them picked up within the next two weeks. They have shipping insurance for the monitors and use a professional shipping company. You will also get your portion of the rental fee. They will be needed for filming from Mid May to Mid August.
If you can help, send me a private e-mail.
Thanks!
