I bought both my rather large machines from Chester. The machine quality is second to none, but their delivery charges are extortionate.

They wanted 1200 UK pounds to deliver my mill and install it in my shop, after either taking part of the roof off or taking out some wall panels, and I only live 30 miles away from them. I got an independent to pick it up from Chesters and bring it, he got it in thru the door, and charged me, as far as I can remember, 300 pounds.

Methinks Chester didn't want the job, so grossly over quoted.
