Ok, so I should have been enjoying my time off with the family

But I managed to sneek behind the sofa with the laptop and put in a sneeky 'offer' on a Mug Press on Feebay

And guess what? 2 hours later the offer was accepted
The press appears identical to the DF1 in every way but I paid a meer £70.00 + £9.50 courier Delivery!
I'm now trying the same cheekyness on an Epson D120

Rather than be 'sneaky'

I use Goofbay to snipe my bids on eBay. It's excellent as you don't have to leave your PC on to make the snipe bid.
I've used many other sniping software in the past, the ones that required your PC to be switched on were a pain.

Hey Stitch, you don't need that software if you are making offers on their listed price. You just need to appeal to their kind nature........ and bid them in the BA**S

It doesn't always work though, I may have won the press at a great price but the offer I made on the Epson D120 was rejected

Never mind I got one at a great price in the end!
Happy days!

I have been watching a mug press on ebay myself, trying to make my mind up whether to get it -it was £89, but then I noticed someone swiped it for £70 best offer - must have been you!
I viewed the sellers other items to find that they had listed the same item for £89 - it wasn't there for long before I noticed that it was sold again for £70.
Having checked again, found that the seller had listed yet another - £89. I therefore went straight in for best offer of £70, and won it. I checked and he has listed yet another, so if anyone else is looking for a mug press, just have a look on ebay and you should find the same one.

Get in quick, before they are all gone

At this rate they should be giving me mine for nothing

Let us all know how you get on with these presses. I had a look at them on ebay but was put off by the picture - the blanket looks twisted and if this is the case the pressure would be uneven on the mug when pressed.
Cheers John

If that's the case, could one not buy a new blanket for £35 to correct the issue - £105 still good?

John, I have purchased this as a 'new' press, if the blanket is twisted so will his Paypal Account
That's the good thing about Feebay/Paypal, the customer is always right! Bring it on!
