there is not a big selection(mostly testors) can you tell me if i should get a airbrush here or just go for the iwata?

Sadly, like most places in Canada, they don't stock the Renegade series or the 100LG. You can buy the Badger 150 with hose at Dixie Art for $88.50 US compared to $150 Canadian. An online currency exchanger tells me that $88.50 US = $93.50 CDN. Duty & shipping would probably be in the $20-30 range.

You're pretty close to the border, know anyone in Buffalo you can ship it to? Quick drive across the border and back might be worth it!

Your local store is charging the full or nearly full MSRP for their airbrushs. In the US, I usually expect 35-50% off MSRP. If they are the only game in town, you should go for the Iwata.

Besides, the store does not list the newer gravity feed models such as the Badger 105 Patriot or the Paasche Talon.

well i will pay for quality so i guess the Iwata is the best bet for my money. Its only 120 dollars so i have nothing to lose. thank you

I don't see any Iwata's at that link. All I see are Badger, a couple Paasche's and that pseudo airbrush the Aztec.

Of the ones I see I would go with the Badger 155 Anthem as I don't see any gravity-feed models which are better all around.

yea my hobby shop has all the latest models but they fall way behind in Airbrushes so i will go with the iwata. do you think its a good idea?

All I can say is buy what you like and what has parts available should you need them.
