Hobart spoolgun at sears

[Sundown]

They also are selling the Hobart spoolgun for $169. I think its the same as a 3035 without the plastic spool cover and the miller trigger connector.

That appears to be a pretty good deal, my only question is why is it so cheap, when the 3035 just below in the listing is $399.

I don't know. One of the guys on the Hobart board ordered one for his MM210, so I guess we will find out when it gets to him.

I chose not to wait and see - if it won't work, I can return it and only be out the $5.25 shipping charge.

Maybe its last years model or they are overstocked? The regular price is $419.

These were listed by Sears as Hobart units, pictured with Craftsman labels - a few have received theirs and they're actually Miller 3035s, in the orginal factory boxes!

And they are SOLD OUT. I've got one coming, wish I'd ordered 10.....

Mine arrived today - it's a Miller 3035 in a plain brown box. Unit says Miller right on it, owners manual same as my Miller 3545.

Wow,
That sounds like a rocket deal. Was this an internet only thing or what?

Yep - www.sears.com only. They don't sell this stuff through the stores. It was kinda interesting, as the ad copy was for a Hobart, the picture was a Craftsman, what arrived was a Miller. They had these for $169.99, and listed the Miller 3035 in a seperate listing for ~$399. They also had Hobart Hood in Eagle graphics for $69.99. There is a lengthy thread over at

My only regret is that I only bought one - shoulda bought a bunch and sold them on Ebay for double!

[fatfrank]

My spoolgun is supposed to be delivered today. I'm glad I went ahead and ordered one.

I would bet someone did buy a bunch and will be putting them on ebay.

Mine arrived today. I had almost begun to regret not getting it when I got my MM210, but that regret just went bye-bye.

Yeah, it looks like everyone who has recieved theirs so far got 3035 Miller guns.
