Do the Snap-On blast cabinets have a big edge in quality on the other manufacturers? Snap-On lists this cabinet for over $2k.

Should I let this deal pass.....SO Blast Cabinet (http://portland.craigslist.org/clk/tls/1249791499.html)

I did not even open the link, cause I do not need to. The Snappy one will be something like a rebadged Skat Cat, or something like it. IMHO a guy would be a fool to fork over an arm and a leg to Snap-on for a rebadged Bead Blast Cabinet. Just my 2 bits though.

EDIT
OK,I got curious and I ended up opening it up. I think if you check you could get a new Skat Cat with a vacuum for about that kind of money.

The problem is shipping at $300! on the skat kills any kind of deal there.

If that is the case, then check TP. If they don't have a deal then it looks like the Snappy is a go! :thumbup:
