You can buy great presses from this forums sponsers.
you can try ebay... dont know if it will be good but im sure it will be cheap lol
Sometimes, there's some great heat presses on there. It's best to look out for ones with some branding, especially if you can match the press they're listing with one from a proper website, then you know how much it's worth, how good it is, and how much you should go up to when bidding for it.
If you're going to get one with no brand from China or somewhere, it's got to be new, because you don't know how long it's going to last. A good, solid heat press, they can last for a decade and beyond, so second hand one isn't an issue at all really.
So neversatisfied, it's at least worth a look on eBay for heat presses. I got mine from their, but there's no always good ones up there.

BE CAREFUL ON EBAY!!!! There is a company working under several different names and accounts - but same company. Its a Chinese company selling 15 x 15 heat presses for about $200. They have auctions (one a day per model press). They are out of California, sometimes called ephotodiscounts, or e-scales, or scalediscounters, or powerheatpress.com
I bought a press from them... Immediately reported issues - areas that the press did not work well. They gave me a small refund... Then 35 days later it caught fire!!!!!
The company tried to say that I may have had the machine on too hot... I explained that I should have been able to set it to the highest setting if I had wanted to and the damn thing should still not catch fire!!! -- BTW I didn't run it high at all and only used it about 20 times.
Anyway... After threatening them with a Federal safety investigation they agreed to refund my money but I had to pay for the $50 shipping to send the machine back....
Still waiting for my money...
My advice: Get a US machine with a good warrantee!!!!!
Our parent company has several Geo. Knight heat presses. They've been good, trouble free presses. We have both swing-away and clamshell models and they get a lot of use.
(As a disclaimer, we are also a rep for the company through our EnMart branch. )
