  Mike, I was wrong. It is a 4000 and no, I dont have a Badger hose. I have the soft braided one that came with the Bear. Do I need to order one? Can I get the quick connect for my Bear also?

What is the "Bear" you are talking about? Is that Bear Air?

I have an extra 6' braided Badger hose here I do not need if you want it.

Come on over. Laugh [(-D]

OK, first off I need a name as calling you, "Dirtball" seems a little crude. Laugh [(-D]

PM me your name and address my friend and I will send you this hose I don't need if you want it.

This is the hose. Used but in good condition with no leaks.

Just received my Omni 4000 (sweet!) and spare 100LG along with the braided hose with moisture trap (which I forgot I ordered, so it was a nice surprise!).

From what I can see what looks like a messy solder job where the cup joins the body on the Omni, and the word "Demo" is engraved in the body where I would expect "Omni 4000".

The 100LG looks perfect except the engraving is completed mucked up, I don't care as it's basically for the parts only anyhow.

Terriffic deal no matter how you look at it! 

So long folks!

My Omni 4000 just came in yesterday.  Mine has "Omni 5000 USA" xed out on it.  It also has a solid handle.  Not that it matters to me, but I though it had a cut out handle.  

Can't wait to try it out.

Thanks for the info. Just got the Anthem 155 and the 200-NH. Really can't beat those prices.

My 100G just arrived and it looks good. It has "100GB" x'ed out and "DEMO" stamped on the another side. Can't wait to try it out.

Update: I like it. It sprays better than my Richpen 113C.

Badger, thank you! Big Smile [:D]

I ordered 2 AB's, and the same hose BGrigg did....very nice prices.

I ordered on Feb 1st. Mail has arrived today...the 27th....no package from Badger yet!

Even with their 10-15 day lead time.....it has been almost 2 more weeks. From Illinois to Connecticut?

Is it time to bi*ch in an email? Of course I have my receipt # as a reference.

Call Badger and ask to speak with Dino.  He is the guy running the Garage Sale.  I had the same situation happen with the four airbrushes that I ordered and he personally walked to the warehouse and shipped it out as we spoke.  Great customer service as they always strive to right whatever wrongs that happen.

I appreciate that response  H3Nav...I mailed the Garage Sale addy after the first 10 days....Dino told me (in email) the lead time was 10-15 days, even though the site said 5-10 days....so I've been waiting....I went ahead and mailed him back tonight.

Thanks again!

A return mail from Dino was here when I got home.

My Feb 1st Garage Sale order will ship today or tomorrow via UPS.....better to have it coming than not to get it at all.

Well, better late than never!

I think they were overwhelmed with responses. I'm kicking myself that I didn't get a couple of other airbrushes at the same time, and now they're sold out! 

So long folks!

They still are having the sale very limited selection.
