Thanks for the welcome. An update on my tig 200dx order. Ordered from amazon, got lost near Chicago, shipped back to amazon in Tenn. called UPS, called Amazom. Amazon issued a new 200dx order, but now showed out of stock. waited 3 days, not shipped yet. contacted Amazon again, they again said out of stock. still waiting. Now another operator issues a ups pickup at my house. UPS says here to pickup a package, I told him I have nothing. came back next day, told him again, no package pickup . put in an offer on a 200dx at Everlast.
Alex calls me and says amazon is selling older models, that is why price is so low. gave me a fair price.
If Everlast kept their pictures of the control panel and specifications up to date it would be more obvious that Amazon was selling the old model

I wanted to cancel my order with Amazon first before ordering another 200dx. So I canceled my amazon order. got hold of Everlast the next day ordered 200dx, they kept the price as agreed. contacted amazon to find out when they would refund my money. They are now saying they did not receive the welder back. so no refund. talked to three different operators, same results. Finally got a number to call, gave story, woman checked, and did show they received the welder back. So in the process of getting my money back now. Also got confirmation on my new 200dx has shipped. What a week this has been.
