Dear Neil and others
While this reply is way of topic..... If Ilford have gone into 'Administration' this could be a legalised scam to reduce the price to any purchaser of the assets of the company while leaving the suppliers to face a loss on unpaid bills.
I have just had this happen to me with one of my customers. Fortunately I had a valid Retention of Title clause and was able to win in this case. However this was tangible assets in the form of books. I am not sure whether some 'Official thieves, sorry Receivers' would agree a ROT claim for the IP in a digital image. Does anyone have a tested clause for ROT over digital files?

PS if your ROT clause is only printed on your invoice it only becomes valid after the first invoice to that client has been paid.

Ilford - has gone into administration. The Cheshire manufacturer might have
to close altogether. Another example of British business falling behind the
times? Or are we all making a terrible mistake moving to digital cameras?
