Laser machines have been sold on eBay for a while now. That means they are good enough for some people. Of course, the question is - would they satisfy your requirements? Only you know what is acceptable for your business or hobby, so my advice is to learn about the differences between the Trotec machines and the ones on eBay and decide which technology suits better your needs. Keep in mind the low-cost Chinese machines use very different technology and therefore produce different results. The differences have been discussed many times in this forum. Look at some of the older posts.
