Author Topic: More news from Technicolor Dave Williams Wet nipple scene Posts: 1836 From: Salt Lake City, UT, USA Registered: Jan 2000 posted 02-07-2000 07:17 PM                        Has anyone else recieved this letter from technicolor regarding fuel service charges? It says that the wonderful folks at Technicolor will not pass on the new fuel surcharge that the carriers are now charging for print delivery to the customers, that they will absorb the cost so that our shipping stays the same. How nice of them, now we will have even MORE busted reels passed on from movie to movie until the end of time in order to save money, or maybe no reels at all! Perhaps they will start using the "bag-o-film" method I once saw that was suggested here on this forum. I don't know about you guys, but I would rather pay more shipping charges and get some friggin new reels out of the deal. And maybe they just might ACTUALLY inspect the prints too. I know I know it will never happen, but a boy can dream can't he? ------------------ "If it's not worth doing, I have allready been there and done it"  |  IP: Logged Ian Price Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1714 From: Denver, CO Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-07-2000 08:30 PM                     My letter said they are raising my shipping fee from $17.50 to $18.00 for each pick-up and delivery.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-08-2000 06:12 PM                        My letter said it WOULD BE $18.00 if they raised it, but since they love us so much, it won't be raised at this time.
