Default just a question

Our site is a couple weeks away from being finished, we are about to purchase our first batch of shirts to take to the printer, I was thinking about purchasing a small machine, you can find them with pretty fair prices, but my question is should we wait for a machine, or start now? Just looking for opinions. Thanks.

Naive? I dont think so, we said we were taking our shirts to a printer, our question was wait or purchase a fairly priced machine to start with and learn.

I will assume by machine you mean a press. Along with a quality press, comes other equipment and more room needed. Are you planning to do it at home?

to start, doing it at home seems to be the best choice, set it up in the garage and take it from there.

Please don't buy a small machine. Start with at leaast a 15 x 15. By the way I stated with tote bags on ebay. My first month I sold over 50. It bank rolled me into a 9 x12 but then I realized I need a bigger press for tees. don't make that mistake.
