Reply:If working leads, torch and peddle are with it and in good shape and everything works and the unit as a whole is in otherwise good shape that is a very, very good price.  At $900 with a bottle it doesn't make too much difference but what size bottle is it?  I paid a borderline high $1400 for mine with a 80cuft bottle and handfull of filler rods last October with 28 months of warranty left on it so take it from there.  I've since upgraded to a 300cuft bottle as an 80 will only give 6-8hours of welding time depending on welding and postflow settings.  Nice little machine that I am very pleased with.Last edited by duaneb55; 02-15-2009 at 02:14 PM.MM200 w/Spoolmatic 1Syncrowave 180SDBobcat 225G Plus - LP/NGMUTT Suitcase WirefeederWC-1S/Spoolmatic 1HF-251D-1PakMaster 100XL '68 Red Face Code #6633 projectStar Jet 21-110Save Second Base!
Reply:Thanks. I read some info on it here. It's a transformer I guess and I'm planning on running on the ole' dryer circuit like my Linkin, is that too much current? Are you running it in the garage? How are your electric bills with this thing if I may be so bold.I'm not sure of the bottle size. I may visit and ask for a brief demo.
