I am having a hard time finding any EU suppliers of dry mount presses such as Seal/Bienfang ones. It seems they all live in US, even those with European voltage (from B&H). The only one I could find is a UK one from www.hotpress.co.uk but they are much too large (50") and much too pricey (£4000-$8000) for my needs (prints up to 12x16).

On the other hand, shipping from US of a Seal 210M is at least $380 not to mention all the customs and VAT. I'd rather get one more locally if possible.

Perhaps dry mounting is not as popular in Europe anymore... Still, if anyone could point me towards a supplier, or if you have a 2nd hand one, please let me know. I tried Silverprint and Robert White already.

Thanks.

I believe Monochrom in Germany has them in stock - www.monochrom.com .

Used ones are usually available at Mr Cad in Croydon, UK - you should call or email them. They would probably ship to you.
