Hi! I have done some plates in the past but it was only couple of them and it was years a go :)
so can any one tell me where I can get some cheap ones? I dont care about gold ream or flowers edges etc... can be pure white. I know Coralgraph sell them in good price any one tryed them yet? I wish to have nice, crisp picture on them as they for high resolution studio photography.


thanks a lot!

There used to be a guy on the old platform, I think he stayed in Ireland, he was doing well with plates. Can't remember his name now though :(

Not much help, am I? lol

You've got no chance on that in this country.

Suppliers don't want to support ceramic plates. We have one or two choices of rotten old plates and virtually no choice of plate press.

I'd say you're letting yourself into a world of hurt until the day comes when a supplier wants to properly address this gap in the market.
