    Anyone know what the present going rate is for signlab ?
    What have the members paid ? (If ye don’t mind me askin)

    Would a download from an American site work the same ?
    (Outlines different??)

    Any comments would be helpfull
    Thanks Goop

    You can download “demos” yes.. But it will take ages if you don’t have broadband.. If you do make sure you have software to pick-up were it left off, incase of download breakages..
    Be wary if the signlab is not from a dealer. Many dodgy ones are faulty. 😮 Stick to a good legit source. 😉
    Signlab will come in around £2000 but has many lower costing modules.
    Cad link are not associated with the UKSG so no discounts given to members unless negotiated direct with the salesman.
    UKSG members can buy flexisgn at discounted rates. “See members area”

    I paid £1700ish for colour master with thermal modual from cox`s. give them a ring, they have discount deals now and again.

    Brian from impact also sells SL, he pops in the forum quite often.
    YO BRIAN, ARE YOU THERE???

    A 2nd hand signlab 5, sells for approx £500. Any reason you need E6? won`t SL5 do?

    I use Signlab 6 Expert.It should have cost £1500 but got it for £650. It also came with the usb doggle, which i prefer to the old serial doggle i used to use at my old place of work.

    SL 5 has a print and cut feature. I used 5 when I had a PC600. It won`t work with an edge.

    If you have just about any kind of software at all you can get a cross grade to Signlab & save a few quid.

    X Grade to Signlab Expert is £785
    X Grade to Signlab Professional is £1000
    X Grade to Signlab Colourmaster is £1200

    Plus VAT less any discount you manage to negotiate 😉

    The thermal module for the Edge is extra, but there is no need for it if you are running a PC60/600.
