Dear all,

Can anyone tell me if the Belgian company called GVB Groundglass, www.sheetfilm.be, a certain Geert Vanden Broeck, is still in business.

On November 10th, I ordered from him 2 groundglasses for my 8x10 Cambo, and paid them immediately.

A month later, I asked what’s wrong, and on December 15, the guy tells me he has problems with the shipping company and that the stuff will be sent by postal service.

On December 16, tells me he had to close his online-shop because of the shipping problems, and about him doing everything to preserve his good reputation.

Furthermore informs me his wife is about to give birth to their second child (good to know) and that he wants to spend time with his family.

Since then, no news. No groundglass.

The guy doesn’t answer his mails. I sent dozens of them, even through this forum.

No answer, and now the email address doesn't seem to exist any more.

Since days, I left messages with his family and on his phone box, but no call back.

Did anyone of you deal with this guy before?

Did something happen to him, or is he a lunatic or just another crook.

Hope to hear from you.

Thank you and best regards

Thierry Schreiner
