Chinese CB3200?

[dikman]

Does anyone know if there is a Chinese equivalent to the CB3200? I've been searching alibaba but so far had no luck.

• Chikon CK-400
• HILED HL-205

Thanks Constabulary. Neither of them show up on Alibaba, Chikon is in Taiwan which probably explains why they're not there, Hiled is Chinese but doesn't show up.

CB3200 is a Chinese machine, apparently a hybrid of the Juki 441 and Adler 205. I've found them under that name on Aliexpress.

Matt, I realise it would actually be made in China and my wording is poor.

CB3200 doesn't come up on either alibaba or Aliexpress. I was hoping to avoid having to go through every listed manufacturers' website trying to match specifications.

CB is the Cowboy designation for their current machine line. CowboySew also produces a line branded Hightex. You might want to look into that.

Ah, of course, CB=CowBoy, me dumb! No wonder I couldn't find it. Thanks Wiz, I'll search a bit more.

Strange, for me a search for "CB3200" on Aliexpress brings up a half dozen different CB3200,  a few 441 clones and some related parts. Machines labelled as Baterpak and Cowboy. Random example: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/32640308447.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.6882407a2GV4gj&algo_pvid=6b1761cd-0231-4e97-8f22-39b11fbb8c80&algo_expid=6b1761cd-0231-4e97-8f22-39b11fbb8c80-1&btsid=eaf6f467-ff50-4446-9935-a0224b02e1a5&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_10,searchweb201603_52

You're right, for some reason this didn't show up when I searched yesterday. My google-fu must have been having a day off!! Notice the shipping charge? Be cheaper to buy one here!! Far better value getting a 441 via alibaba. I still can't find an equivalent for the 3200 on there.
