Anyone do business with 
http://www.fotoreporter.sirotti.it/
 ?
I tried to work something out with these guys, but they seem to be so tight,
that they squeek! They do mostly men photos for their bread and butter, so
when I asked to get a few old photos of Cappellotto from the early years
when she won the worlds, they not only wanted a fortune, around 100 euros a
photo, but they wouldn't sell me a photo to use with my palmares for any
price!
Whooaaa, what is the problem? I can't believe what could cause anyone to be
so tight with photos that are such a small piece of their business, and way
outdated, certainly of little value to any buyers. I am more or less a
speciality novelity buyer, but for those guys, they should be glad to sell
me a few, since no one else would be wanting to pay a good price for such
old photos.
What is up with those guys?

They want to sell you the right just for one utlization so if you want to 
use the photo again you have to pay another time.
In others words thy sell not the photo but the rights for each single 
utilization.
To overcome the problem you can :
Write to Cappellotto : " Dear Alexandra your are the most elegant and high 
class rider i bettween the women pro off all the times. I am planning to 
open a fan club in mi town and i need some photos : Of course a pair with 
U.C.I world champion Jersey and the photo... ( here you do your specific 
request).
_ Other option : Take another email and wrire at Sirotti as a society and 
ask for  samples photo because the admimistration of your society much 
decide which to buy. Say them that is enough to send photos by email..
Then save them to your hard disk. For personal use you have no problems not 
divulgate them by press otherwise you will have legal troubles....

You register to the site and then you save the photos. Right click is 
disabled but you can go to Temporary Internet Files find the jpeg and save 
it

Per gli Italiani :
Se volete salvare sul hard disk una foto da un sito ed il tasto destro del 
mouse č disabilitato andate sui file temporanei internet e cercare la foto 
salvandola da lě.
Svuotare la cache prima di far l'operazione se no vi tocca cercare 
molto.....

Yes, I quite understand everything you said, but Cappellotto photos are
extremely rare on the net. There are a few here and there. Actually
fotoreporter have several ones on the net already. Getting them to disc is
no problem at all, but getting permission to use them on my site has been
impossible, for any price. However in time, I think I will find some in
Europe. Cor Vos has a few  that I know of, but fotoreporter is perfect for
an article. Of course I would never paid big money for them. Some people
think their photos are worth big money, but they are dilusional. I get some
photos for free, and others I take myself at races, but still others that
are extremely good quality I pay no more then $3 dollars apiece for. I don't
believe in paying huge amounts of money for photos, unless they are
extremely good and commerical rights are granted like for a book or
magazine.
