Roq owners
« on: March 31, 2016, 09:34:55 AM »
We are really close to signing the contract for a new auto. We are down to a Roq You and a Sportsman. We are leaning towards the Roq but I have few questions. Are there any Roq users on here that would be willing to answer a few questions through email or PM? I would like to get some honest non salesman user feedback before signing. Thanks!

Maybe not exact figures, but what is the cost difference between the two presses?

I think they are pretty close. within a couple 1000 dollars. What I found that makes a big difference, is the extras. I think the Flashes are several 1000s in price different, table up vs head down. You will need a smaller air compressor set-up to run the ROQ vs the sportsman.

You might want to check the numbers again. The Sportsman even in a 12 color would not use more than 3 h.p. of air at full speed and the price of the press and flashes is comparable if not lower. Fell free to call or contact me if you would like to discuss. rich.hoffman@mrprint or Cell 630-240-9076. Office 800-736-6431

I decided I'd get a gym membership for the workout instead.
