I agree with with Helen. Cutting a check for an individual DVD (or
book) is an enormously
labor intensive process, and something we try try avoid doing at
practically all costs. Paypal simply
stinks. And as for wife transfers---puh*leeze*!!?? Vendors should be
encouraged as much as
possible to accept credit card transactions.
Best,

not with the filmmakers, but rather with the requirements of PayPal.
I wonder what would happen if I used another email address, like
gmail or something? They are pretty smart, so their system would
probably see the same CC associated with multiple email addresses and
correctly assume that we are trying to get around their bank acct.

I work with a number of independent filmmakers and they are just
selling their own film or films. They can't really afford to set up
CC accounts for just a film or two. They are always happy to take
checks or wire transfers.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues
relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control,
preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and
related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective
working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication
between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and
distributors.
