That model was made for several years. I bought mine about 5-6 years ago and it is still going...

 

I've had mine for three years and bought it used.
has yet to let me down. I did notice the temp is off about 45-50 deg though.
I use a thermometer gun to adjust the temp.

I have a Hix HT-400, 15x15 that must be at least 25 years old. Works like a charm. Never had a problem with it.

I was just considering buying this.
Had no idea how old it was... how much should i look at paying for such an old piece of technology?
It looks new on the website
Sublimation and Heat Transfer Solutions - Picture Perfect Products Australia

 

anewbeginning....Picture perfect...the link you gave...appears to be a regular Hix heat press dealer so the product would be new. You don't state where you are from...Picture perfect is an Australian firm...so if you are there are in New Zealand...good place to go but if you are another country...not so good when you consider shipping/customs

 

Hey Charles,
Im located in Sydney, about 3hrs drive from the dealer

 

Then it appears you are in the right place at the right time.. I have been using a HIX for a long time...reliable system

 

Not if im in the market for a secondhand one

 

i bought mines for 100 bucks, it is very old.

 

Over 25 years old but I can tell you, we used it in the flea market making t-shirts, that long ago for several weeks. We put it away in the garage, where I found it a couple of days ago. I'm trying to get rid of it for $150.

 

Hey FabStuff! If it is working now I would pay 150.00 for it if you would pay the shipping. Can we make a deal?

 

I have a old Hix hat press that works like a charm
