    BB LIST #1144 – Random mutterings

    Just been reviewing the stats for the last few years… In the last financial year we sold a lot more kit, sales were up about 25% – sadly the average value of those sales was down. LOL Most of the sales have been EU Sales… these last few months we have had very few UK/UK…

    My favourite part of a new week is seeing all the items sold over the weekend being despatched. Seeing kit on its way to its new home. If you have kit which you no longer need you can also re-home it, give it a new lease of life. Even if the kit is tired or…

    BBLIST #1123 – Tis The Season… To Sell

    Ahoy! It is that time of year again where people love to buy something small for themselves. A set of ND filters, a windjammer, a Peli case, an IFB box or a cable testing gizmo… you’ve got the idea. Dare I use that C word? Yes, we are all fed up of buying Christmas gifts…

    BBLIST #1102 – Buying and Selling. Why do we do it?

    Ahoy! We love hearing from our customers the reasons why they buy and sell used gear. Some tell us that they buy second hand kit for a job when extra kit is needed and sell it on when that job ends… For example when more radio mics are needed for a particular shoot. They go…
