Default Plotter and Press package ?

Okay, i may get bombed for this question, but i am new to heat transfer so I am looking for something very inexpensive to learn on and maybe make a few bucks too.

Please look at this combo on ebay and give me your honest opinion.

I would stay away from it.

See why here: Some major Heat Pressing Problems, Transfers don't Transfer all the way

It can sometimes be harder to learn on the "less expensive" stuff because of problems with the machines working the way they are supposed to.

You may get a wrong impression about the heat transfer process by the quality of the machines you buy.

If you fully understand that many problems you may come across may be due to the equipment and not the process, and you don't mind doing LOTS of testing and retesting to get things working right, and you don't mind not having a longer warranty and good service/support behind the product, and you don't mind not being able to sell the equipment for a decent price if you want to upgrade, then it may be worth considering

I would tend to agree with Rodney....This type equip combo could be difficult to get in sync. Hard to pinpoint if the trouble is with one or the other.. plus I notice this is shipping from Canada...if you are in US would there not be some sort of customs tax on it? just wondering
