Don't quite understand how fleabay or cheap plotters can ruin the sign business! I've been in the trade for over 23yrs and have very good friends who use 'chinese plotters' and when they break, replace them cheaply. I advise them to buy a descent well known brand but if there happy, there happy. At no point has it 'ruined' my business and nor has fleabay.
Quite a flippant comment to be honest.
Did Skoda ruin the car business....?
Oh! Their could be a long drawn out debate on what Skoda did to the car business,
I use a Chinese cutter myself, Trying to kill it and Can't seem to, However it's only 10 month old, lets wait until it's 1 year and one day old shall we,
The point i was trying to make was if you buy quality you get quality, Rather than a throw away job.
However! when it goes wrong and i bet you a pound to a penny that it will go wrong, well before my Roland or Houston which is fast approaching 20 years old,
It will be cheaper to dump it and get another one, Than to try to get it fixed, Tell me that is good for any signage company or the environment. (had to get that one in)
And yes in-hindsight it probably was a flippant comment, But forgive me, if you check out my other thread you will see what kind of week I've had and blowing off some steam on here is better than hitting a Goat with a wet kipper, (Don't Ask)
