Does anyone in the NW need a mig?

The wire feed motor on my Thermodynamics 220v mig quit the other day. It is 1 year into a 3 year warranty and they are repairing it. I have work to do so I bought another machine instead of renting one while the new part comes from Tokyo or Nebraska.. who knows. The supplier offered me $350 for the machine, I paid $600. I would rather see some one else get it for $350 with 2 years left on warantee, should be transferable but if you say you are me, who would know? It is about twice the size of a 120v mig, weighs and easy 100lbs, uses 10lb spools. I was running .023 wire but it is really set up for .030. It has a .250 thickness rating. Does not matter to me really, I could ebay it if I had more time. It would be rediculous to ship this thing for the cost difference I would think. I ran it off a 40 amp circut , I don't remember what the requirement was. I would guess minimum 220v 30 amp and it does have a regulator, torch, tips, etc. But does not come with a bottle.
