I am trying to come up to speed on variables before making a purchase please comment on elements you think are important to consider.

I am interested in a small brightstar - highly recommended
and a Rabbit 406040 that allows for long stock to pass thru the cabinet in increments

Importing on my own is not a good option

What do you plan on doing with this? Price and availability of spares, quality of the support, and most important, the software. If this is for a hobby, I think Lasercut is fine, but there is a reason a lot of pros pay many multiples the price of a Chinese machines to be able to work quickly and reduce setup time between jobs.
