Hi. I am looking for a computerised mount cutter. I have never used one before so would be interested to know your views on makes and models, what's good and what to avoid.
Is there anything about for sale?

I would make contact with the reps for the various machines, and see if you can arrange a demo of each.

From a user point of view, I have the Gunnar, and a key point for me when trying them was the 90 degree cuts on the edge without changing the cutting head.

The machine has been fantastic since I've had it, and the support from Sarah and Steve is A1 when it's needed.

Hi,

I'm sure Sarah would rather not hear this as i'm sure she woud rather sell you a new machine but, i bought a refurbished machine from Sarah at Gunnar and its been brilliant. Try giving her a call - she may have something on their books.

regards,

Graham

Wizard customer service has now moved from the UK to Germany, so expected to not be as good as Gunnar or Valiani, that's all I have heard (from Gunnar!)

Wizard now is in Germany as mentioned but I must say the service is amazing , we have two machines new one rented and no issues. Yes postage takes a bit longer week for blades etc but training is online and we have had no issues. Let me know I can send you my sales contact. all the best

I too went down the refurbished Gunnar route.

But I'd just give Sarah a call, talk through your requirements and she will give you the options available. If you are near to Birmingham I'm sure a machine demo could be arranged easily too.

Thank you all for your replies. It gives a little food for thought.
I Have spoken to Sarah at Gunnar and she will keep an eye out for me.

Hi. Thanks i managed to get a wizard 8000 last month.

Good news, did you buy new or used, looking for some indication how much my used 8000 would be... Al

Hi. I bought one that was 10 year old but in good condition. it was quite local so didn't cost much to get it to me. Paid £6000 for it.

Thanks, sounds about right, ...... Al
