Looks like they're redoing their site though.

Really...
This is unfair.
Cause this doesn't help me IN HAWAII.

When I was down in Sac, I was surprised how discounted the welders were.
Well, it shouldn't be, cause any "industrial" town would generate a lot more competition due to sales.
This kinda stuff really pissed me off, cause it almost always doesn't apply to me in Hawaii.
The local authorized Miller and Lincoln shops all charge close to full MSRP on their welders.
Don't even ask how much tanks / gas / accessories cost...

And, no, I'm not flying down there just to buy me a welder.

For me, it's still going to end up costing over $2,000 for an entry-level TIG, tank, gas, cart, and consumables.

I'd still like to be cool like Jesse James and use ESAB products...
*sigh*
