I am regularly updating this page. if you are after something special it is always worth mailing me to see if I have one. I currently have over 350 machines but rarely get time to put them on my site.

WORLDWIDE DELIVERY SERVICE IS AVAILABLE ON ALL MY MACHINES - Email me for individual prices:alexsussex@aol.com


Why buy a machine from us when you can find one cheaper at an auction somewhere!   Well, we all love "a find" but unfortunately it is always someone else that wins the lottery. What you get with our machines is peace of mind. You know that with our machines they are going to arrive professionally packed on your door step fully insured and guaranteed. You know that you are getting a complete machine, not one that is missing a few "irreplaceable" parts that the owner forgot to mention. So with our machines you really are getting what you pay for, a five star service.
