I received the first offer for a Digital Betacam in a day. I then subsequently received full payment within two further days. Excellent.
I find the site extremely user friendly and quick to post items for sale.

We sold 2 of our items via TV-Bay. A Remote Control Zoom & an Audio Boom Cover.
I think the website is excellent. It's easy to advertise, nice site layout and great web name.

We are now receiving regular enquiries from your site and in fact have seen an increase since you started publishing the used kit directory which I believe to be a good idea.

TV bay has been very useful to us to get rid of old equipment. D1s, henrys, onyx and a Harriet. Also we sold a SPG.
A video enthusiast contacted us through TVbay and drove over to collect the old onyx from us. He ended up buying a whole van load of old stuff so he could play with it and repair.

I think TV-Bay is a good idea. We got a lot of general inquiries but not neccassarily for the products we were offering on the website.

I can say I was very impressed with the way tv-bay handled one of the people who contacted me with a slightly dodgy offer of 2k for a lens that is only worth around the £800 mark, and money to be sent back.
TV-bay is now the first place we look when we are buying broadcast equipment.

We would also like to thank you, because tv-bay is for us an important and sucessfull platform to sell our used equipment.
The services are always very good, for example the upload of new adverts or that you send a "warning mail", when you think it can be a fraud.
In 2006 we made some new contacts to other broadcast dealer, what is also important and positive for us. tv-bay makes it easy to get to know new dealer or customer.

Being a young channel, I like your aggressive way of marketing.
In fact I was aligned with some of the senior channels but I notice some kind of aggressive sales and promotions that you carry. I think the participants will get rewarded due to above exceptional quality of yours.

TV-bay established very quickly with rapid uptake in industry visibility.
Enthusiastic staff offering services beyond standard advertising.

I was sceptical about using TV Bay but decided to take the plunge and have a go at listing some of the equipment we had available here at BPS. I put together a list and sent it over to the helpful staff at TV Bay and was surprised to see my equipment listed on TV-Bay.com within hours.
The response I got from the listings was great. Within a couple of days I had sold nearly half of the products listed and had made new contacts which without TV-Bay I would not normally come across.
I will definitely be using the service again.

We regularly place quarter or half page adverts in the tv-bay magazine (equipment guide). We offer engineering support services and have found it gives a very good response, far exceeding any other place we have advertised in the past and an excellent return on investment.

WESTGATE DEVELOPMENTS has been trading in the Film and Television Industry, since 1990,supplying a wide range of portable power products,batteries,chargers,inverters,generators,studio and location lighting and associated products.We have always advertised extensively in many Film & TV publications, some producing better results than others,so when I was approached some months ago by Fiona to advertise in TV-BAY Magazine, I thought I would give it a try, even though I had not heard of the magazine at that time. I have to say I have been astounded by the response we have had from 3 or 4 ads we have placed, many of the enquiries resulting in sales. They must be doing something right.

I had no idea just how important a chance meeting with Simon and the TV-Bay crew would be at the Broadcast Now show. Apart from the very useful forum they have in terms of technical equipment and its acquisition, they asked if they could do a feature on our new concept and some of the technical issues we faced as adventurers getting into a new market place!
The response was extraordinary, even though coming out at during a normally quiet month we received calls from people wanting to know about job opportunities, whether we could host their TV/Film products and how they could buy a License. We are now in negotiation with a number of potential Licensees and simply would not have got the industry wide coverage we have achieved without TV-Bay! I simply cannot recommend Simon and his team highly enough for their professional and friendly service, they go that extra mile!
