“Dominion is one of the largest plant valuation & auctioneering practices in the Asia Pacific region servicing private, public and government sectors.
We found out about www.PrintersPost.com.au post through google, There were 3 very specialized machines that needed promotion for an upcoming tender.
- Smoothbonwell UV Spot And Flood Coating System
- G & K Folding System Comprising
- 1958 Heidelberg Cylinder Press 540cm x 720cm
We perused the site, did some research and found the site to be well equipped to handle this type of promotion. The profile we received from head office was impressive and we decided to go ahead and advertise. Using the facilities of Printers Post gave us direct access to potential buyers, and all three items were sold within the Tender timeframe. We will definitely be using www.PrintersPost.com.au for our next Printing, Packaging and these other related industries in the future, and we confidently recommend the site."

“When it came to promoting Printech New Zealand 2006, www.PrintersPost.com.au complemented our overall strategy. Their before and after coverage was thorough, clean, precise, and accurately reflected our profile and the messages we needed to portray to the marketplace.
We would confidently recommend the site for event promotions that need specialized & independent coverage online."

When the lease for the “Heidelberg Trendsetter 3244F Spectrum” had ended. The marketing and advertising had to be projected to a very specialized market and in a very specific way.
To most people the name sounds like some kind of fashion accessory!
We did our homework and chose our platform carefully. After much consideration we decided www.PrintersPost.com.au lent itself well for what we needed to achieve. We received enquiries pretty much straight away, and then sold it!
It is based on this experience that I can confidently recommend this site.

Dear Max,
My congratulations once again to all at Printers Post. As an earlier testimonial I wrote states,' we were very pleased with the number of machine sales (100%) that we had achieved directly related to your newsletter.'
Now we are well and truly impressed! We had a successful enquiry within 20 minutes of one of our latest second hand machines going on line!
We believe the little extra involved in having you produce an 'Extra Display' facility on your front page, truly is great value per dollar spent. Your compilation and setting of our adds, from what little we give you also deserves mention too!
Thanks again to all the team,
John W Drake

We were referred to Printers Post by A E Hudsons.
After studying the site closely, We found it was very user friendly and decided to advertise our equipment. Within two months, we successfully sold all of the 8 machines we advertised!
We are delighted with the outcome and confidently recommend the site...

Dear Ann,
At the June meeting of the National Print Awards board, they have asked me to write to you and thank Printers Post for all the support they have given to the 23rd award night in Sydney.
The coverage was excellent and we firmly believe that your articles certainly helped us in spreading the ‘good word’ about the National Print Awards. Without the support of the media we would struggle to get a wider appreciation for what the award stands for.
With the 24th award night being held in Sydney next year to PrintEx’07 we look forward to hosting you again. Once again ‘thank you’ for all your support.
Kind Regards
Scott Telfer

Just wanted to thank you for your superb coverage and support that you have provided for Ipex. We really appreciate everything you have done for us. Sorry we didn't get much time to speak during Ipex but hope that you enjoyed your stay.
I guess you're already working hard on covering the next event and producing the next Printers Post Newsletter.
For us we are now working on developing some new idea opportunities for specialist areas of print in a number of potential regions, including Australia / NewZealand - I'll keep you posted.

We tried to sell our machine in the Trading Post and the Melbourne Age and were unsuccessful. Our technician referred us to Printers Post,we placed an ad and we had enquiries immediately.
I am absolutely wrapped with the outcome, we sold our machine!
Printers Post is really the place to go if you want to buy and sell equipment.

We have had many dealings with www.printerspost.com.au
When we started our printing business we purchased all our equipment from the site. As we grew so did our demands, and we decided to go back to the site to sell
- Canon Wide format Printer (Originally purchased new from the site)
- Padprinter
Within a week of each machine being placed on the site, six months apart, both machines were successfully sold for the price I was asking!
Because of the ongoing success we have had from a buyers and sellers perspective, we are now going to advertise our services on a regular basis! Therefore it is with confidence we can recommend www.printerspost.com.au

We have been using the services of Printers Post since PrintEx 2003. Their promotions and in particular the newsletter have generated more leads than any other advertising approach we have ever tried. Turning leads into sales is never easy but without leads there are no sales to make. Printers Post has generated a huge number of leads and it because of this we can confidently recommend the site for anyone wanting to reach the industry in a efficient, cost effective, and professional manner.
Cheers,
Peter
Essential Outsourcing is a professional employment agency, specialising in the printing industry, Printers Post has helped us successfully promote us now for 2 years. Essential Outsourcing started advertising in 2003. One of our customers referred us to www.printerspost.com.au suggesting they would be able to help promote our business. Intially we did small amounts of online advertising to test the waters, responses was very positive and consistant..
Gradually we have increased our exposure, in doing so maintaining a steady flow of quality enquiries.
The staff at Printers Post have always shown commitment, and plenty of initiative when it came to promoting our services to the trade.
I would recommend the site for any companies looking to promote their services to a specialized market.

We have been advertising with Printers Post for the past 2 months. We have advertised a variety of machines, the interest has been consistent, we have had local and international enquiries.
We sold one of our bigger machines to a local printer. The site is simple and easy to use, but most of all it gives results, and I would confidently recommend it to anyone wanting to sell used printing equipment.

Hi Max,
Below is the testimonial that we are happy with:
We had known about Printers Post since it started a couple of years ago and have since frequently looked at the site. When we were in a positon to sell our paper bag machine, we decided to give it a go. We were initially nervous to advertise since there were no ads for paper bag machines on the site, eventually we did.
With a series of overseas and local enquiries, the machine finally sold. This was a very specialised machine and needed a specialised market. We are confident to recommend Printers Post to anyone looking to sell this type of machinery.

I have advertised 3 different machines in the last six months on www.printerspost.com.au.
On each occasion I have sold my machines within a week of listing them. The people making the enquiries are from the printing industry and are not time wasters, we are fortunate that we have such a specialized site.
I would recommend www.printerspost.com.au over any general website such as ebay to sell specialized equipment.

Our company has been using the Printers Post website since they started way back in January 2003. We have had one successful business transaction after another throughout the entire two and half years as a result of this exposure.
The friendly staff at Printers Post has always been committed and helpful and provided feedback and service which is second to none.
We would absolutely recommend the site for anyone looking to reach that specialised marketplace in the printing world. The advantages simply stack up. Consistent visiting traffic, service and exposure, which has resulted in a stream of regular inquiries and sales for us.
Kind Regards,

Dear Max,
Because of Printers Post, our no longer needed equipment has now gone to a new home -- and I believe will probably be going to a Tsunami ravaged printer overseas. That is terrific -- and could not have been without your generosity and the exposure on PrintersPost. THANK YOU so very much.
It was indeed a happy day when I found you on the web some months ago now and if there are any printers out there who still don't know about you then I hope it won't be too long before they too navigate your way!
It has been such a pleasure to work through PrintersPost, and to have the friendly personal contact with you concerning our needs on the phone.
Specifically, I would like to thank you for your generosity in posting the 'giveaways' free of charge and for the exposure you gave them on site and through your newsletter. All your help has been greatly appreciated. Thank you again.
Most sincerely,
Sr Raphael
Hi Guys
Just a quick email to let you we have sold the SITMA hence please remove it from your web site. For the records, I got four enquires, the first one within 24 hours, who went on to purchase the SITMA within 7 days.
Bye for now.

We heard about www.printerspost.com.au through a work colleague. The ad for our Polar 115 was created and went live on Tuesday the 3rd of May, in the evening the following day the machine was sold! It took 24 hours to sell, great results.
The staff at Printers Post were very helpful and the process was smooth. I would recommend this site for advertising; it gets the message out there real quick.

To whom it may Concern,
I found out about Printers Post while surfing the internet. It was great to find such a specialized site. We advertised our 1995Komori Sprint II 26.
Being in New Zealand we were hoping to get the exposure. After listing the machine, we had a steady flow of enquiries from here and abroad, and we finally sold it to a company located 2 hours of where we were based, the machine was sold in the first month of advertising!
Printers Post staff were prompt in any enquiries we had and were very helpful. We think the site is a terrific idea and can vouch first hand about how well it works.
Good Luck

Dear Shannon and Max,
We have sold our Multi 1650XE machine through Printers Post! Thank you so very much for all your help and suggestions along the way. I will leave it on the site as sold -- as an encouragement to many!
I do thank you for your site and your service and wish you all the very best. I have told anyone I know about Printers Post.com - and will continue to do so!

The decision to purchase a small Printing Company was made primarily to introduce a new range of customers to our own customer base whilst there were some assets that were not required and we were recommended to advertise the items via “Printers Post” on the internet.
We advertised seven machines and were successful in selling five within 30 days with the remaining two sold within the following fourteen days.
We are very satisfied with the quickness and case of negotiation via “Printers Post” and confidently recommend this site for the sale of Printing Equipment.

To Whom It May Concern:
I had my reservations when it came to advertising my Roland Cutter, I knew advertising in Trading Post, SMH, and Ebay, did not reach a specialized market, I had a small budget and I wanted to sell without too much cost.
I nervously agreed to advertise on Printers Post…..
Well within the week I had an enquiry and I managed to sell the machine to that same person!
I was delighted to see that it actually works.
It is therefore now with confidence I can recommend anyone looking to sell Specialized equipment to use Printers Post to advertise,
Fance Naumovska
To Whom It May Concern:
In order to sell my Heidelberg GTO46ZP, I had advertised in the SMH and Trading Post, with no success. I then advertised on www.PrintersPost.com.au, within a short period I managed to sell the unit. I therefore would recommend anyone wanting to sell their press, to use the site.
Ray Killen
To Whom It May Concern:
We recently had a special listed on the Printers Post Newsletter for our Duplo Collating System. The enquires came through very quickly, to my surprise we sold the unit to the very first enquiry we had.
It was the perfect machine for the company.
And really the perfect sale,
Like having another salesman on the lookout, we recommend the newsletter as a great way of reaching the audience for that special machine or service.

To Whom It May Concern:
I had a Ryobi 3302 Pres to sell, after listing on www.PrintersPost.com.au
We had a steady flow of enquiries, and we had 3 people visit and we eventually sold to the third visitor. This all happened within the first month of advertising. Therefore I have no hesitation in recommending Printers Post for anyone looking to sell their printing equipment. It is cost effective, specialized and very quick to deliver information for the both the buyer and seller.

Dear Printers Post,
I advertised on the site and within the first month I sold my machine to a company in Argentina!
This would not have been possible without the large target audience which your website captures not only nationally but globally. I was extremely happy with this service and have already recommended the site to collegues in the industry.
Regards,
Wolfgang Spilker
To whom it may concern,
At Printers Post the first thing you notice is that geography and the speed at which people can make enquiries and view ads is no issue.
We had enquiries from various states and ended up selling to a Queensland based company.
For this reason we recommend advertising on Printers Post.

To Whom It May Concern,
We at Hudsons have referred many companies looking to sell their used equipment to www.PrintersPost.com.au
Surprisingly, they were successful in selling the items they advertised very quickly. We then proceeded to market our products. We successfully sold a used machine, which enabled us to sell a brand new machine.
We also were featured in a newsletter, and this generated quite a few valuable new leads. The direct advantage of Printers Post is that you can reach your target audience
Extremely quickly and at very competitive prices, It is for this reason we recommend Printers Post.

Dear Max,
We have no reservation to providing a reference to any one interested in the purchasing and selling of printing machinery and equipment through your electronic services.
We have had over 30 years experience in this area, and only wish both your facility and expertise had been available a lot earlier.
We have now completed approx 5 very succesful outcomes for our growing clientele, and this is largely as a result of the professional manner in which all transactions can be done through access to your site.
We have broadened our range of reconditioned machinery to extend beyond the Shrinkwrapping field, and this is due to a large degree to the speed in which buyers can be found through Printerspost. We look forward to greater business dealings in future months.

To whom it may concern
We had already successfully sold machines on Printers Post. So when it came to buying our first 4 color printing press, we went back. The obvious advantage with www.PrintersPost.com.au is that one source provided us with the ability to choose from a selection Printing presses, after much research and negotiations we ended up buying the most appropriate new press for us.
We therefore would recommend www.printerspost.com.au to help you simplify your search.

Kwik Kopy Printing
To Whom It May Concern,
Printers Post is literally a one stop shop for printing machines. With little background in printing, I was looking to start a digital print shop. Via a printer, I heard about Printers Post. Not only did I find a large selection of used machines.
There was to my surprise a lot of new equipment to choose from as well! We ended up buying a combination of new and used equipment. HP Indigo from Curries, Laminating and Binding equipment from GBC,Copier from Xerox, Large Format Poster Printer from DES, and Guillotine from Kenthurst Printing Machinery Sales, these guys were all great to deal with.
The staff at Printers Post could not do enough to help.We now have our first few jobs up and running.
It is on this basis we would recommend www.printerspost.com.au to help you locate you new and used printing equipment.

I had read the testimonials on Printers Post and was impressed to see how quickly some Machines had been selling. I had a Heidelberg MOZ to sell, and I thought I would give it a go!
It was listed in Friday's Newsletter and I also took out a couple of feature ads. By close of business the following Tuesday, the machine was sold and the transaction completed within three weeks.
I was pleasantly surprised to be part of such a quick selling process, it was very efficient indeed. The folks at Printers Post are just as efficient and quick to respond to my needs. I would therefore have no hesitation in recommending www.printerspost.com.au to sell your equipment.

I was perusing Printers Post as I usually do. I came across a machine advertised by CPI. The specs and price were perfect, I was very surprised to see how competitive the price is, I bought it!
Printers Post is just the place to find that bargain.
Thank you,

To Whom It May Concern,
We found out about Printers Post via a referral. We were initially reluctant to take on the advertising because we thought that we had the market covered, using the popular avenues of E-bay, SMH, and Trading Post.
Within 3 working days we sold all the machines we advertised, I wish we had many more of the same units, we would have sold them over and over.
We are ecstatic with the results. We would highly recommend the site to any companies who need to reach the Printing and Graphic Industry.
Regards,
Simon
I placed an ad on your site some weeks ago (Roodenburg Graphics). We successfully sold the equipment to a company in Darwin, which, being ourselves based in Sydney, we would have never heard of if it was not for your website.
Thank you,

Max,
My request was for an obscure component for my Oce 9500 plan printer, which Oce were unable to supply. Printers Post replied promptly with an email to a company that had these parts available in Sydney. The part was delivered overnight.
I was both surprised and very pleased with the service from Printers post, and have no hesitation in recommending them to others

Hi Max,
Just a short note to say thanks for the follow up on the recent purchase of the used Iram paper drill. My client had been looking for sometime for such a device without success and asked me for assistance. It was simply a matter of typing in "used paper drill" into my search engine and up popped your website.
Thank you also for your prompt response to the enquiry. We ordered the machine and it will be delivered here tomorrow. It's that simple.

Dear Marina
We are still laughing. I don’t know what time you put the advert on site. But we sold it at 6.30pm. I figure that it was on sale for less than an hour!! Well done, thanks so much. Would this be a record for you?

Hi Max,
“I had my HP 2000CP large format poster printer listed in the SMH for sale, there was no success. I later listed the same machine for an increased amount on the Printers Post and sold it within 2 weeks.
Advertising on Printers Post is much better value.....
Just goes to show you how valuable specialization is!”

Hi Max,
It would be an understatement to say we are happy with the leads we received from you, despite our initial reluctance to advertise on what we saw as a site that dealt with the printing and graphic equipment. To put it into perspective we are very impressed with the quality and number of leads we received, approximately three times what we normally generate from our own web site.
One of these leads (a household name) has generated in excess of $17k in two months with the potential to run to $200k this year. Compared to our own web site the number of leads has tripled.
You and your team have been very professional, easy to deal with and helpful with your advise. We look forward to a long relationship with the Printer’s Post.
Regards,
Jim Mackessy

M&P Machines have been using Printer Post over the last 3 months and already we have had good leads and sales from the web site. This option to use PP for another form of advertising lets as do the main work on selling and supplying Printing machine to the market. Max and his Staff are very helpful and for the small outlay we can see our returns over the next year growing. M&P Machines are looking forward to a long partnership with PP.

Dear Max,
Just wanted to drop you a line to let you know that since we started advertising with you on Printers Post we have concluded 3 sales as a direct result of our exposure on your site. We are pleased with the look of the site and well done to you on all the recent changes you have made. Looking forward to a mutually beneficial relationship in the future.

I am delighted with the response I received form an ad placed in Printers Post. I sold an imagesetter I had no further use for within one month. Just as importantly, Printers Post made the whole exercise simple and hassle free.

Printers Post helped us to expose our press to a large market, and being in North Queensland this was by far the best way to achieve the sale price we required. We placed an ad for 1 month and had over 50 hits on the web site. I don't think we would have sold our press as fast as did without Printers Post.
I would recommend Printers Post to any print shop looking to buy or sell machinery, it's simply as well as time and cost effective.

Dear Max,
I recently contacted printers Post seeking a supplier of the Pantone range and was promptly put in touch with a supplier of these products. A followup call also ensued, ensuring that the enquiry was looked after.
A wonderful and responsive resource.
