That exactly the same one as all the eBay sellers have (even the photos & copy is the same...). That's the 'no-frills' model, no z-lift, no light, no air-assist, no interlocks (!) etc.

With the $150 shipping mentioned it's the same price (interesting...); except you won't have to deal with customs, and you'll get local support.

The only consumable with these is the tube; a new one is about $250 and they last a few years. Prices jumped about 50% not long ago, and the lifespan is really YMMV.
