Re: Who is Print Your Vinyl?

I don't like merchant / business websites where I can't see the name of the people operating and a postal address. Non appears there. What's surprising for a lathe cut business that supposedly started in 2022 is to claim 30 000 happy customers. I wonder how many lathes they're operating simultaneous...
