Is this a good deal on a MIG ?

My buddies got a Lincoln 220v Lincoln 155 amp MIG welder. He wants 150 bucks. Its the weld pack 155 and not the newer Livewire one. Cant seem to find much on the web about this model. He says its from the mid 90's any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks

 

thats a great deal as long as you already have a 220 line. I have been looking for a good deal on one locally and if i saw one at that price i would snap it up quick. Go for it

 

If it works, it's a great deal! I just paid $800 for the SP175plus with tax, without bottle, today.

 

Wish I had money to buy even an elcheapo welder with.

 

Looks like I'm gonna pick this one up. I know there are cheap ones from Harbor freight for maybe 1-200.00 but Ive learned my lesson with their stuff. Its good for one or two times of use and then its pretty much a paper weight. Thanks for the advice.

 

Here ya go. Cheap and fairly simple on-board welder.

I find myself using it more and more around the house. Luckily I have not needed it on the trail yet (knock on wood).

 

May need to take this up on pm's, I have a 110v stick welder thats goog for general light repairs and tacking things together. shoot me a pm if interested.
