The $1900 free shipping offer on Ebay for TA Arc Master 185 seems like a pretty good value, wondered what actual purchasers experience has been: http://cgi.ebay.com/THERMAL-ARC-AM-185-AC-DC-TIG-STICK-WELDER-10-3073A-1_W0QQitemZ130159067130QQihZ003QQcategoryZ113743QQ ssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I got my Syncrowave from them. Had no problems... I was going to go local but local is 2 hours away and thought of having it delivered to my door was nice.

I haven't bought any welding machines from them but I have bought some of my bottles and they were much cheaper delivered to my door than any of the locals. I have also purchased some other items and have not had any issues with the service and definitely no issues with their pricing. Dave

I have the arcmaster 185. I love that machine. It does everything I want and more. I have other machines, but this one is the balls.

As far as IOC, I did buy a tig cooler from them with torch for $544.00. coulnd't have found a better deal. It came right away with no problems. Everything I expected.

You might also check brweldingsupplies on ebay. They're good people and I got a great deal on my MM251 from them. I ordered it on a Friday and Tuesday morning the guys on the dock called and told me to get my s#it off their dock. Quick delivery drop shipped from Miller.

Good luck I hear good things about the Arcmaster 185.

The Weld-Tec cooler CSK 2.5-1GT is compatable with the T/A 185? And most cable covers will work? Thanks for your info.
