Planet are an English manufacturer ,high quality good value and service back up.Luxe have English base ,Smart Parts and also have sales back up. Empire are an American outfit ,while Im sure you can find people to help.They do not to my knowledge have any tec support at events or specific outlets. Im sure you could find someone ,but not the presence of the 2 mentioned or Dye.Is marker servicing and where the marker brand is based anything to be concerned about when purchasing?
Reason I ask is that I have been looking at markers and the two brands I'm trending toward are Empire and Eclipse. Like the Axe pro but the fact Eclipse have a UK base sort of sit a bit better with me for some.
