Whats this welder worth

[Ders]

Im looking at a local auction with a pile of ESAB Caddy Tig 2200i AC/DC Welders. Hard to find anything info on them. As far as msrp or resale price of used ones. Anybody know anything about them?

Since a new PrimeWeld Tig225X is less than $800 last I checked and comes with a three year warranty, I wouldn’t pay more than 30% of that for a commercially used machine that’s a pig in a poke, ie no guarantee it even works.

finn nailed it.

I wouldn't buy a new ESAB, much less a used one.

First question is why "a pile" of them and second there's a *** of info on Youtube about ESAB. They've been around a while and lot's of fabricators use them.

Esab is fairly popular over here - surprised me as before I moved here the choices were generally red, blue, or thereabouts Asianic 3rd brands... but I know a lot of people who have them and they seem to be fine.
