**       The only securities of SC&T International, Inc. ("the Company') which 
         Cameron Capital Ltd. currently owns, and has ever owned, are 150 shares
         of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Shares"). When Cameron
         Capital Ltd. purchased the 150 Preferred Shares on June 17, 1996, those
         150 Preferred Shares were convertible into approximately 227,000 shares
         of common stock of the Company (the "Common Stock"), or approximately
         4.3% of the outstanding number of shares of Common Stock, based upon
         the conversion price of the Preferred Shares on that date.  (If the
         Preferred Shares that were sold by the Company to other investors
         concurrently with the sale of the 150 Preferred Shares to Cameron
         Capital Ltd. are included in the calculation, Cameron Capital Ltd.
         would have beneficially owned, as of the date of its purchase of the
         Preferred Stock,  approximately 3.4% of the Common Stock.)  Since the
         date of its purchase of the Preferred Shares on June 17, 1996, Cameron
         Capital has not acquired any additional securities of the Company.
         Cameron Capital Ltd. only became required to file this Schedule 13D
         because of the decline of the trading price of the Common Stock, which,
         in turn, increased the number of shares of Common Stock into which the
         Preferred Shares are convertible.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

         Cameron Capital entered into a subscription agreement with the Company
dated June 17, 1996, pursuant to which Cameron Capital agreed to acquire 150
shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, $.01 par value per share (the
"Preferred Shares"). The aggregate purchase price for the Preferred Shares was
$1.5 million. The Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of Common Stock
on the following basis: the numerator is the sum of the (i) the accrued interest
on the Preferred Shares, plus (ii) the product of 10,000 multiplied by the
number of Preferred Shares owned by Cameron Capital; the denominator is the
conversion price (the "Conversion Price") which is equal to the lesser of the
following: (i) $7.75, and (ii) 85% of the average closing bid price for the
Common Stock for the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of
conversion (which conversion price is subject to equitable adjustments for stock
splits, stock dividends, combinations, recapitalizations, reclassifications or
similar events).

         Concerning the purchase of the Preferred Shares, Cameron Capital
utilized its own working capital funds.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

         Cameron Capital acquired the Preferred Shares for investment purposes
for its own account. Cameron Capital currently does not have any specific plans
to convert the Preferred Shares into shares of Common Stock or dispose of the
Preferred Shares or the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion thereof, but
it currently intends to convert and dispose of such shares at a time that it
deems appropriate based upon then current market conditions, the Company's
financial condition, the


                                        6

trading price of the Common Stock and other factors. Cameron Capital does not
currently have any plan or intention to acquire additional securities of the
Company other than its intention to obtain shares of Common Stock issuable upon
the conversion of the Preferred Shares.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

         Cameron Capital does not own any shares of Common Stock, but does own
150 Preferred Shares which are convertible into shares of Common Stock. Based
upon a Conversion Price equal to the average closing bid of the Company's Common
Stock on the NASDAQ Small Cap Market for the ten trading days commencing on
October 10, 1996 and ending on October 23, 1996, which was approximately $.4969
per share, the total number of shares of Common Stock that Cameron Capital
beneficially owns through its ownership of the Preferred Shares would be
approximately 3,551,430 shares of Common Stock, or approximately 41.5% of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock. (If the 21,332,261 shares of Common Stock
issuable upon conversion by the other holders of the Preferred Shares were
included in this calculation, however, Cameron Capital would beneficially own
approximately 11.8% of the Common Stock).

         The number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Cameron
Capital for purposes of this Schedule 13D will fluctuate depending upon the
Conversion Price which, in turn, varies based upon the closing bid price of the
Common Stock, but will never be less than $7.75 per share. Mr. Peele has the
sole power to vote and direct the disposition of the Preferred Shares and the
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion thereof. To the knowledge of
Cameron Capital, none of the individuals or the Trust listed in Item 2 of this
Schedule 13D beneficially owns any Common Stock other than through Cameron
Capital's ownership of the Preferred Shares. Cameron Capital has not, and to the
best of Cameron Capital's knowledge the individuals and the Trust listed in Item
2 have not, effected any transactions in the Common Stock during the past 60
days.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understanding or Relationships with Respect to
Securities of the Issuer

         Effective as of June 17, 1996, Cameron Capital and the Company entered
into a Registration Rights Agreement, whereby the Company agreed to register the
resale of the Common Stock by Cameron Capital under the Securities Act of 1933.

         The Preferred Shares owned by Cameron Capital and the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion thereof have been pledged to Refco Capital Markets,
London, United Kingdom ("Refco") relating to certain obligations of Cameron
Capital owed to Refco unrelated to the purchase of the Preferred Shares.

Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

         None.
