I have no problem admitting he was dead wrong on this account. Hopefully he has got it all out of his system with the Printex.

That is part of what you are paying for in the purchase price. If that is not that important to you then I agree don't visit the manufacturer if possible. Just give someone your money and hope they are there when you need them. I see people doing it here pretty successfully all the time. ( now that last statement WAS a knock)!

This makes sense to me and were all things that I discussed with 2M prior to moving forward with anything. Unfortunately no matter which press we would have went with visiting the factory was not something I was going to be able to do unless it was within fairly close driving distance.

But remember, he's doing the same with Mustank, word for word, it's actually comical, you could swap Playtex for Mustank and the post was the same. Same person doing the "judgement" as well. Remember that. So ask yourself, is he that dumb, or is he deceiving people?

If hes done it once. Well than that's all a lot of us need to know about him.

Why could you not visit the factory when this much money is at risk? At the least airfare would/should of been covered for you to see reality.

Why not Customized? everytime I have bought something big I have flown out to view it...#1. to see it #2. to learn how to run it #3 to make sure I understood what I was doing...laying down 50k for a press, 40k for dts, 22k for DTG...heck airfare and a hotel is nothing compared to those prices....

I actually find the expensive ones make more noise. The cheap ones tend to be a little tired, worn out. Bit sloppy on th index, have sloppy lift and only one speed on the flood stroke. Expensive ones definitely stroke faster. The cheap ones don't respond to button pushing and knob tweaking either where as the expensive ones tend to be full feature. I tend to stay away from the chain driven ones so can't comment there. The expensive ones can be programmed a little easier also to go around again and again, but that all depends if you can keep up with loading them.
