looks pretty good, do you have a website or anything?

Definitely worth basing purchase on quality as main factor rather than price if you are going to be using it a lot. Had a cheapish 3 panel one foisted upon us and within a month 2 of the lights had snapped, then the framework started to snap and finally some of the magnetic strips stopped playing!

Would also recommend buying as strong a case as possible, particularly if you will be using a courier

The website I linked to is our website, but we don't actively market our printed materials service so we don't have a section on it. I'll email you through your profile and then hopefully we can have a chat over the phone.

As mentioned in the advert, the stand is made by a company called Ultima Displays and sold through a network of dealers (of which we are one).

Take it from me, Ultima built to a price and in our experience their kit won't last the course. We are dealers for a number of manufacturers and have sold a lot of Ultima kit over the years when clients insist on it. They are an English company who cut corners by using the cheapest materials they can get away with, made in cheap and chearful factories in China and their customer service through to their dealer network is terrible at best. There are other manufacturers with kit that we can supply that to the untrained eye looks the same but is made by their own workforce offering quality control and made to last that will do the job for a very long time. If supplied by my company it will also be supplied with a lifetime warranty (we are the only company in the UK to offer this on all products we supply) and you get excellent customer service during the buying process through to delivery. And if the worst should happen when things go wrong (which they do from time to time!) we'll still be here to look after you. Inm y experience if you want a good quality pop-up expect to pay about double that cost advertised, I would say £1800 for a 4 x 3 with all the bits (lights, bin, protective panel wrap etc) is a good guide - you get what you pay for in the exhibition industry believe me. One question I would ask the website dealer is would they be prepared to come and visit you at your offices to run through their products, I think I know the answer....

I am happy to be pm'd and I'll quote for an alternative system to the one you can see but I promise it won't be cheaper, but I will offer a better product. Our client list reads like a who's who, not a who's not and we currently have full order books which is indicitive of the products and service (especially in the current climate) we offer.

The choice is yours.

Sorry if I sound like a patronising git but the market is flooded with cheap kit claiming to be something it's not, so please take this reply in the way it is intended wink
