Upgrading to better machine. Penta Premium 3600 or Superstringer S90?

Just been offered on ebay the Gamma X-ST X-Stringer for 550 pounds. Is this a good deal? Looks in really good condition.

If it's really in a good condition, then I would say it's a good deal. It's a perfect machine to upgrade later on with a WISE. But without the WISE, be aware that it's a crank machine and that all the Superstringers you have been looking at are drop weights.
 
oh yeh defo. i HAVE a wise tension head already so im looking at all of these machines intending them to be upgraded straight away. Ill be selling my pros pro xp plus without the tension head and replacing with the old crank.

Ah, sorry, forgot about the WISE somehow. X-ST plus WISE is a killer combo. T70 has some features that are superior (mounting system, clamp bases), but I question if that is worth the price difference to the used machine. Again, the X-ST has to be in a really good condition there.
 
Patented Rotational String Guide
• Diamond Coated Linear String Gripper
• 6-Point Quick Mount System w/”V” Mounts
• Quick Action Swivel Clamp Base
• Slim profile all metal diamond coated string clamps with unique self-locking adjustment knob to hold strings with less clamping pressure
• Strong, light-weight aluminum extrusion base with built-in tool tray and drawer
• 360 degree turntable rotation with locking brake

these are the quoted features on the gamma website....
 
yes they are in the pictures! looks like they are still in the plastic wrapping. Oh this is a private offer i have messaged him about.

Yeah, now I spotted them too. Overall a good deal I would say. But here's the big question: X-ST or the T70?
 
As the T70 are all sold before arriving at 15 or 18th december i would recommend to you to buy the gamma machine. The next T70 will arrive in march/april 2018
 
thanks Tennis man. Would you say in your opinion if the Gammas are of similar quality to the superstringers?
 
lol. fair play. its quite far for me to travel to collect though in london. might have to ask if seller will go half way.
 
Bit hard to pick up a decent machine now days, everyone slagging off Pros pro, Superstringers are never in stock, everything else too expensive.....
 
The container with the machines arrived at friday in germany. Now the freight forwarder must make the customs clearing and transport the container to our company. If the customs clearing is well and fast we will receive the delivery at the end of this week, if not, next week
