Where to buy a new machine?

admin

As I've stated in earlier posts, I plan on buying a new TIG machine in the next few days.  I'm limiting myself to $2000, and I think I can find a good machine for that much money which will suit all my needs.   I settled on the Miller Syncrowave 200 Runner package.  I've Googled and Dogpiled every search criteria I could think of and have priced the package on at least a dozen welding supply house websites across the country.   I've found them for around $1899 to about $1975 delivered.   I already have a good argon bottle, so except for a few expendables I should be under budget.    If anyone has any other suggestions for other machines I'd be happy to listen.I'm buying out of state simply to avoid the .00825 Texas sales tax.  It would put me over budget.  There are several good dealerships in my area but they can't match the prices and can't do anything about the sales tax.I've narrowed the possible suppliers down to two.    Maybe one of you guys may know of a good favorite supplier who does business out of state, free shipping (factory shipped), honest and has a phone number with a live human at the other end.I'd appreciate it.
Reply:Try BR Welding supply on ebay. They are out of New Jersy and I got my welder from them cheap and fast. I talked with a Miller rep and he told me I made a good chiose he liked them. You should also check with US Welding and Safty Supply in Miami I bough a lot of stuff from them and they give almost dealer prices and saved me a bunch. Retail on everything I bought on the last order was $12,585 my cost from them deliver to the port was $8,793 I was very happy. When I tryed to beat the price the other guys did not belive the price and told me no way. 5512 NW 72ND Ave Miami, FL 33166-4206Phone: (305) 477-6303 Ask for Joe Steel Thunder Welding LLC.

Reply:Uhhhhh...B&R is located in Maryland...I've been in the store there and the old one in Springfield Va. But that really doesn't matter. They are good people where ever they find themselves. .. BUT..buy it from their online store at BRwelder.com..it will be a few bucks cheaper I bet.   It is listed at $1965 for the runner at the moment. http://www.brwelder.com/IndexTemplat...le=monthly.htm
