I work in Chungnam, Cheonan and I want to buy a laminator and a paper cutter. I prefer the guillotine style paper cutter, but will also look at the 'drag-knife' style. I will, of course, pay all freight costs as well.

I know you can find a laminator at Costco for under 100k.

Thanks, I'll check it out. It's about time I checked out Costco again, it's been years.

The Costco laminator only does A4 sixe and you have to wait about 30 seconds to one minute between pieces. It only does thin laminate, not the good quality stiff stuff. Last I saw they were 100,000w. It's ok if you want to do a few pages at any one time. If you want a serious laminator, you will have to spend big bucks. I got a great deal on mine I can do any thickness and A3 paper; 275,000w @ Techno Mart. That was over a year ago tho.

I got a small paper cutter. Only 45cm x 45cm. Sucks I had to pay 75,000w for it.

Sadly, you are looking for things that teachers generally never buy so you won't find them used here.

Maybe ask someone to go 'midnight shopping' at their school for you. I'll sell you a nice laminator with digital heat settings, timer and speed control... used of course... 170,000w. lol.

Anyway be ready to spend the big bucks! Good Luck!

Good Luck!

Thanks for the info about the Costco laminator, I'll also check out Techno-mart next time I am in Yongsan, 175,000 sounds like good value for a quality new machine
I'm trying to cover all bases, got a friend looking at online auctions for me and I am looking around the shops too. So if anyone knows of a laminator or paper cutter, 2nd hand or new, let me know.
