Members jcwalsh Posted August 2, 2009 Members Report Posted August 2, 2009 All, I was looking for an Airbrush and the Iwata Eclipse HP-BCS was recommended by quite a few people. The used ones on EBay were $75+. I found a website where they are $69 new. Using a 10% coupon (handheld10) the shipping was almost free. Did I get a deal or did I get shafted?

Hand Held Iwata Jeff Jeff: it's an excellent airbrush. I'm concerned that the website doesn't list what's in the box along with the airbrush, other than 'factory sealed retail box'. i may be wrong, but it reminds me of some of the less reputable New York photo dealers who advertised in the back of photo mags... they would sell you the camera, and it was cheaper than other places, but they then sold you a 'mandatory' camera case for $$$ extra (- the case actually came with the camera). When I bought my Iwata at AC Moore several years ago, it came as a kit package, with the airbrush, the hose, several bottles, a wrench & several other items that I can't remember. Price was (I think) around $150 or $125, but I used a 50% coupon & paid about half. Again, prices, I'm sure, have gone up so you may have gotten a very great deal. As far as the airbrush, you will love it! russ Quote
