    Actually you don't even have to go to the show, but I would have loved to. You'll get the same price as attending. I worked out a deal on the phone. It must have been cocktail hour, eh Gary!

    I'm sure this would not happen with Trotec Canada.
    The Canadian division is quick in response with quotes and they have machines sitting on warehouse floor ready for delivery.
    They are not only my suppliers but I consider them my friends.

    I couldn't agree more!! Pretty sure I wouldn't be a Trotec owner without Neville and Chris!

    I just got a quote for Chris in Texas for a 400 Flexx 80/30. I do not want to know what people are paying but Is there a percintage off that I should try to get?

    My experience with Chris is that he is a straight-shooter and you'll get a pretty good price first time. You can always try to negotiate something better, but there isn't really any percentage that you should ask for, and you'll might have more luck getting him to throw in extras for the same price instead of getting a lower price. My philosophy is that it never hurts to ask, and the answer is always no if you don't.

    220V vs 110V outlet for starters...

    Just make sure you can accommodate that.
