1. The Color Printing Forum Marketplace Forums can be useful for members who know one another well from forum discussions and offline communications and wish to post presses, equipment, or parts they either want or have for sale or trade. However, caution and good judgement should always be used. Especially when considering any business with anyone not already well known to you and trusted, due diligence must be used to confirm details and identity and be sure the transaction is safe before any money or property changes hands. Always use good judgement and perform due dilligence and follow these guidelines.

    been thinking of trading in my rotaprint alpha sra3 and my ab dick 8005 sra4
    for possibly an ab dick 9810, or single colour hamada, something which has a better registration than an ab dick, but just as easy to set up.. Has anyone got any thoughts on the best company in the uk that would make a deal on these and possibly cash

    If you want perfect register, get a GTO. You won't regret it. The only thing they fall down on is running speed and paper capacity. They'll print anything.

    Good choice. Having continuous damping will really help too.

    Nope. I totally understand. I spent 10 years in shirt & tie until the start of last year when I took redundancy and I've gone back to getting my hands dirty now too. It's all came back to me very easily and I'm still enjoying it. The money isn't as good but at least all I have to listen to is machines chugging along instead of office idiots whining all the time! Mind you, my folding machine does sound very similar to one particular person I used to share an office with!
