Where are you guys getting this from.
TSC seems to be the best price as they have the 80 cu ft cylinder for just under 300 and it costs about 75 to fill it.
Praxair wants me to rent a cylinder for 60 a year for a 55 cu ft cylinder and charges about 75 to refill it.

I just got lucky. Some guy had to sell his setup due to health reasons.
Brand new Mig PAK 180, 2 x full 40 cf tanks, regulator, spool gun for aluminum and cart. 700$ flat.

I was doing the tank rental for the last year and for someone who only welds occasionally, it isn't worth it at all... I'm pretty fortunate to have found a free source of blue shield and tanks! I don't go through much but it's still keeping money in my pocket!

Good stuff, turns out the full tank is only going to cost me 250 and it's a 125cf, going to pick it up today after work. Pretty excited to see what real mig is all about
Free source sounds much better though, haha would love that!

That's a great deal. Rental I paid 100 bucks for the fill and 8 bucks a month.
Welding is night and day with gas. I've done a lot of body work with 20 and 22 gauge sheets that Flux would have burned right through.
Made it more fun than frustrating for beginners like myself.
