I picked up a lightly used one along with an Epson 1280 setup for Dye Sub for $800 for all. (gonna dable in the dye sub stuff).

It doesn't have any attachments other than the flat platten for now.

I like it and it is easier to use than my Hix Swingman 15 but how reliable is it?? I wouldn't mind unloading my Hix press but it might be a good idea to keep it as backup in case something happens.

You'll certainly want to hang onto the Hix for a while as a backup while you make sure your GK works reliably to your satisfaction, but in general GK is a reputable brand and should be trustworthy.

Perhaps look into getting it serviced?

The price was right. I opted for the DK20S and a DK3 mug press rather than the combo. Did you get the dysub ink kit as well for that price?

Yes, I got the inks too.

I like the press. Its easier to use aside from the automatic timer.

I need to sort out all the stuff I got. Its been sitting so I hope the printer and dye sub inks aren't clogged.

Hopefully dye sub inks are less finicky than pigmented stuff.
