Oh, did you tell them what you told me on how Printex was f'd and it was a joke with all the problems they have?

Just wondering how honest you are being with those potential Printex "customers" you are being.

Yeah he has ripped off everyone in the industry. These few screen printers that buy a machine from him are clueless. Best of luck to them, but Robert Barnes is nothing more than a fat guy that can't cut his way out of a hamburger sack!

Where are the Printex videos for all those people that are buying these "forward thinking" printex.

I'd look to MHM if you want technology.

And if you want speed, check out the CHIII that thing is FAST!

Well looks like Barnes has struck again, I received a disturbing email from both his wife, daughter, significant other....Colleen, not sure who she is..... and then another from the king himself. WOW what a turd!

I purchased a press thru Garment Equipment auction and unbeknownst to me, mr barnes owns this company. Yes, I did not do my homework but I guess when the topic is not in the forefront of your mind, you don't ask too many questions.

Anyways, seems that barnes is up to his old tricks and refused to stand behind his word and contracts. I got a sub-par press that so far he refuses to warranty despite his contract that states specifically that they guarantee it will be in Good working condition.

My question to you all is, has anyone gone after him in court....if so what was the outcome?

Please share, I am thinking about going down this path.

Thanks!

You should see the emails i started receiving from Barnes after I asked him to remove my email from his mailing list that i've never subscribed to. Screen shot is a beautiful iPhone feature, I'll be posting the screen shots shortly.

But he sure talks a good game when he's trying to sell the press. He will convince you that he has been there for all of his progressive customers over the years after he sold the company when I doubt that's even close to being true. He will convince you that he will always be a phone call away if you have a computer go out on your Printex press or 3 down print heads on your 16 color Prism and a bad flash unit so that your 16 color is now essentially a 12 color. I feel for those shops that put their trust in him that they would have someone there for them when the press goes down. And even with all the improvements on the P machines there are at least 12 of the first generation machines out there that are terribly unreliable.

There is a new press design coming from Robert that he designed himself and it will supposedly change the world of garment printing for the better...yeah, heard that before. Stay tuned boys and girls, it's an interesting looking press that's for sure.

I can't believe some people bought into his BS. He's a dude traveling around talking **** about people all the time. Anyone with that much **** to talk is almost always full of hot air.

Have you noticed he's using "Robert Wilson" instead of Robert Wilson Barnes on his new bed venture. Let's hope someone has control of the money on that one or it will be another ruined company.

He dropped the "Barnes" for a reason. Even people searching for a bed would have seen all the crap he was a part of in this industry and stayed away.
