I have a buddy who goes to the SEMA show each year in Las Vegas. Through that connection I got a Miller Synchrowave 200 tig machine complete except for the argon cylinder delivered to my doorstep in Santa Rosa Northern California for $1800. That was MANY hundreds of $$ less than what any local welding equipment could offer.
Also, consumables like tungstens and filler rods are available from online sellers at deep discounts. The only thing we need from local suppliers is argon.
It definitely pays to shop for welding equipment.

Then they will ask where you would like to buy them at.Lincoln calls the dealer and you go there to pick it up and pay there.I have two welders and a plasma cutter I bought through this plan.The dealers I bought them at said they can't even buy the items at that low of a price .I did shop around and the discount was still less through the Lincoln Plan.I still would recommend everyone to still shop after you know the price .Each item also is not a set percentage depends on the total value of each item. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 474 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2010 Posts: 474 | You call Lincoln and tell them what item you would like they will tell you the discounted price.
