Two Die Plates, One Self-Inking Stamp
The S-843 and S-844 are available with two die plates. The second die plate is included free of charge. Consider this difference in selling two stamps in one. It is a "green" friendly concept and can be sold with a replaceable die plate which is easy to recycle or reuse. Rather than customers returning to your store for recycling, you can mail them a new text plate for easy installation and charge less than for a complete unit—the majority of the cost is in preparing a "one-of-a-kind" printing plate—and still make the same margin/profit.
You can use the unit to increase your average order by offering your customer a Paid, Faxed or Received text plate which snaps in easily and adds value. Upcharge for this and offer your customer something your competitor is not offering.
Contact Shiny USA for a free sample of this patented concept for easy die plate replacement.

Heavy-Duty Teller Dater
Shiny has expanded its Heavy Duty line to include the H-6101 which boasts a 1.25-inch x 1.5-inch die plate. The die plate matches the standard 401-1/2 die plate. This new unit includes all the other quality features of the Heavy Duty line and is currently in stock and available with two-color pads. Why sell a manual or all-plastic dater when the H-6101 is here!
