    the guy on ebay is very expensive, go with Diatech if you order tomoz it will be with wed..
    also if they dont have it in stock then they wont sell it to you, if you start a dispute with paypal they will get your money back..

    I must admit the diatech price i got was higher than the ebay. They did drop it a bit but not enough, hence the montolit!

    Credit to the guy, he has issued a full refund today. Ordered yesterday, refund today. Can't complain at that I suppose! Just one of those things I guess, but he shouldn't say he has the cutter in stock!!

    It made it worse for me, being under pressure to get the cutter in time, but David @ Diatech has come to the rescue, with next day delivery!

    Thanks to you all for your recommendations, this forum is so helpful
