Shipping can be free, or $30-40 for ground. No sales tax either.

I'm very tempted to pull the trigger. I've been eyeballing Chinese knockoffs (it's hard to call any of them just Chinese chamber sealers, because all of them are made in China). The cheapest seem to be about $350, plus sales tax (10% for me).

A big difference i notice is the motor. I'm not sure about these new ary ones. But the old ones were 400w (at least the vp210). Then you either get the air or oil pump. The oil pumps are more expensive, but are better for a commercial operation because of cooling ability. The seal car for the new ones are 12.5"

The Chinese ones are 125 watt, and only come with an oil pump. So it'll definitely be slower. It will also probably be difficult to repair anything, and I'm sure customer service would be garbage. The seal bar is about 10.25".

I actually ordered a used vp210 on OfferUp. But after a week (which had a tracking number generated), the order was cancelled. I'm pretty pissed about it.
