I ended up buying this at £390 looks tidy enough and not too far from me. I can get cracking on now.

looks like a nice press! Hope it serves you well. I love the 'Superdry' vinyl cutout in the background on the first image!!I ended up buying this at £390 looks tidy enough and not too far from me. I can get cracking on now.

I keep an eye on fleabay for Pressmech, Adkins etc several times a week but very rarely see anything - how come everyone else keeps finding them!

Hope you are referring to the superdry cutout and not the press.
The seller mentioned he had a contract with superdry. Who knows. Either way picked the press up today and well pleased with it.
The bargains are the ones with badly worded adverts, crap photographs, and tend not to actually mention the make/model of press - having a saved search in Ebay for "PressMech" for example will hardly ever get you any results, as I don't think I've ever seen one actually advertised by its brand name. The first one we bought off Ebay without knowing what it was, or how good it was, just needed a press quickly of that size, and there was one fairly close at a good price. Took me a few weeks of searching online to find out what it actually was, as there is no branding on the press itself to know what it is.
Believe me I was keeping an almost "round the clock vigil" and ready to drop when I came across mine. I was getting to the point where I would have bought anything just to get some sleep.
I have on several occasions just searched on heat +press including in description. Having got xx,000 returns I filter by location - anywhere within 200 miles. Next I select to display 200 items at a time and just whizz down the page stopping for anything that isn't red or black!

Very old original Adkins are green - branded as "Double A" for A Adkins and Sons.
Old Adkins are cream/blue
New TexiPress are yellow, although older ones black
New Adkins/Insta mainly creamy colour
PressMech are white/blue depending on age
Jarin mostly blue, but some were bradned as different companies, some being red (there's possibly one of these red ones on there at the moment, but hard to tell from the photo!)
We breifly had a yellow TexiPress, but I think my wife sold it to a friend who wanted one before we even used it. So, can't comment on what they're like. With a drawer style lower base, they're a good compromise between a swing and clam.
I once (in the last 12 months I think) saw on Ebay an old green Adkins press, which was exactly the same design as a present day PressMech!
