I was a bit nervous when I found the site. I went to ReferenceUSA to see if they really were ok. I found that the phone number they listed for another company name. So, I called and is the same company, so I felt they were legit. Videos came ok. My only disappointment was one of them seems like a Chinese bootleg, with all the Chinese titles around the case etc. __________________________________________________ Cindy Badilla-Melendez, M.L.I.S Media Resources Librarian O'Shaughnessy-Frey Library, University of St. Thomas Mail #5004, 2115 Summit Ave, St Paul, MN 55105 phone (651) 962-5464 fax (651) 962-5406

I'm the Visual Resources Curator at Pratt Institute and was put in charge of the film and video collection about a year ago. I'm not sure if such a question is taboo or not, but we are looking to purchase some films that are only available from iranianmovies.com, and I was wondering if anyone who has worked with this vendor in the past would be willing to share their experiences good and bad off list. Also, I was trying to see if it is possible to search the list archives, but I couldn't find an easy way to do this. Thanks a bunch.
