Fiona Cooper - aint cheap is it?

[Deuce Bigolo]

Dear compared to what?

The bargain basement prices on this side of the pond never dropped below 15 pounds so 20 or 11 sounds about right

The US mega sites(holding 50,000+ titles) simply slash their prices to move the non-exclusive stock they hold..hardly comparing apples with oranges

Economies of scale...smaller outfits charge more or they dont survive

Dont forget due to his behaviour many people could tell you of models that worked with him once and never worked again for anyone else so exclusivity
is a part of the equation as well

Worth every penny of ?20. I bought one some years ago, 4 scenes of Louise Hodges, 10 mins each including toys up her ass, then 4 scenes, same DVD of Michelle Thorne.

Great value, well made and still watch it!

a scene may be at least 10-12 minutes long, but all scenes together put the overall duration of these dvds at hours. He's got 2 websites as far as i know but think he tells existing customers to order by post.
mention was made of a site to be made where you could join and stream/download all titles but nothing has happened.

Its not the choice of chicks thats the worry

Its the backing music thats the challenge
Can really put you off your crumpet

Selling un certificated tapes is illegal. Whether they're by mail order or not. I should know I got the knock on my door that eventually closed me down and Astral Blue had to stop.

He would be safer opening a membership site, there is no law except the Obscenities law to cover it.

Now you can get a whole months membership for the same price.

[Deuce Bigolo]

Actually there are 2 websites if you discount the joke of website for pictures

The old one where your encouraged to order by mail


Online catalogue where you seem to be able to purchase online



I know nothing about the certification rumours that have been around for a long time


Did the break away Spirit do the same?
Does anyone have the old spirit website address?

[jj]

I may have Spirit's postal-address knocking around somewhere, but
they're LONG deceased.

Does anyone know if Fiona Cooper videos/DVD's have got harder over the years? I kind of thought they were very tame years ago, rather like those Electric Blue videos, and when you watch them now they are very strong - with everything happening other than couples doing stuff together. Have they got harder over the years or were they always quite strong? I don't know why I thought they were tame years ago but that was the impression I had.

[Deuce Bigolo]

It got harder as it went on if you go by how it was released but thats only because the b/g scenes which were obviously made around the same time were not released until he decided to use them as a give away for buying certain quantities

Striptease and non-hardcore(see the word cock mentioned in solo scenes and you know its soft ie cock pleasures)was their forte which isnt suprising given their motto was sexy not sex

Not exactly sure when the solo mast scenes came around but they were always more the exception than the rule.If you see toys mentioned you know it should be relatively hard though that can vary as some of the models seem more adept at using them than others

Terri aka Sally Shakespear looked like she was digging a hole to china
Deborah aka Dawn Phoenix trying to create a third canal

Deuce, thanks for that. I wonder if Fiona Cooper films will eventually end up having boy/girl or girl/girl scenes in them. I dont know why they wouldnt be keen to have them in the films, there is a market for that after all.
