It egad the R&D/Demo unit at Matsui. M&R have them a free dryer and I think exposure unit. Plus a new "top of the line M&R auto" every 2 years.... So I was able to pick up a 2 year old machine with 50k impressions and 3 flashes for about half price! Stan(works at the shop) took the pic. He is real talented. Very good artist, and does some crazy wood cut prints too! We supply most if not all of the ink companies with equipment for usually 11 months and then change it out to the newest version of their choice. This way it allows them to test inks,etc on the product most people will use as well as give people in the industry a chance to buy discounted equipment with low impressions on them.

That aside, from a marketing and recognition standpoint totally makes sense. If you can afford to do it, more power to you!
