Killer Badger Garage Sale!!

Thanks for the heads-up. Just got a 155 Anthem for 22.00!

I'm all giddy! 

Great Googa Mooga!!!!  I just ordered a Badger 100g and hose shipped for $40.  Awesome!!!  Thanks for the heads-up.

That's too bad, that blows a whole in my plan to order a 100LG as a parts rig...

BGRIGG,thanks for getting back to me. I`ll be ordering one of them Monday.Is there any differance in the two? Same AB,differant name? Just wondering..

To tell the truth, I've never held a Omni 4000. I own a 100LG, and I've heard from reliable people that the Omni 4000 is slightly better. Both are gravity fed, top mounted color cups that are capable of pencil thin lines.

I've emailed Ken the owner to see if this is just a Paypal issue, and I'm hopeful that they have an alternate way of ordering. I have a couple of people I might be able to tap for forwarding if not.

I'm sure you'll enjoy your 4000!

I mean really! Tenax is one thing going over a border....but an unloaded airbrush? C'mon!

Just silly

Well, I couldnt waite! Ordered my Omni 4000 today.What a sweet deal!. Also Sgt.VEL & bgrigg, have either of you thought about having someone DOWN here order them for you??

I actually prefer the Omni 4000 myself and use it for about 85% of all my airbrushing.

The Badger 100LG is excellent also but the Omni is easier to clean and reassemble since it uses a drop in tip and has a back lever that doesn't fall out unless you remove the needle tube assembly.

Bgrigg why not have it shipped to a friend stateside and they ship it to you? I mean what is Mike for? He hasn't published a review of the new Badger airbrush yet.

I can't review what I don't have.

As I suspected the issue with shipping to Canada was merely a Paypal thing. I received an email today requesting my address and order information so they can send an invoice via Paypal.

I'm getting a Omni 4000, and a spare 100LG for a parts rig (I already have one along with a 150).

I'll likely never catch MikeV in quantity of airbrushes owned, but I'm trying!

You are lucky I didn't get heavier into T-shirt airbrushing as you would never catch me then.

Those guys use between 20-30 siphon-feed airbrushes for speed.

Hey,

Has anyone been charged yet for their purchase?  For me, Paypal has "completed" the sale but no money has been taken out of my account.  I'm just a little worried about this 'great' deal.  My father used to say "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is".

I highly doubt that Jesse, this is Badger, the largest airbrush manufacturer in the world and they do what they say. Give it some time they are probably extremely busy as they are behind on production because dealers waited too long to put in orders and then sent them all at once.

Oh I trust Badger fully.  What I don't trust is hackers breaking into a website, putting up false information, and stealing people's information.  It happens.  Heck, it happened to the CIA's website.  Maybe I'm just parnoid.

Anyway, I noticed this morning that indeed the money did come out of my bank account and charged to Badger so I'm hoping to see the airbrush soon.  I pretty excited and can't wait .

Jesse

Believe me, Jesse. If it was hackers the money would have been long gone!

It's a true deal, I ended up having to call Badger to place the order!
