UBid.com had some for under $100 bucks. I have a tilla, original version, must be 15 + years old, has seen much use and still works great

Periwinkle, I don't know the different models you talk about, lots of these machines are made by the same manufacturer, but just have a different name on them. Check out this site, these guys are in Seattle, they could help, you could call them too: http://www.vacuumpackers.com/ -N.

Thanks guys - Couldn't find anything on U-Bid, but I'm really more concerned abour quality than price. I've heard the economy (basic) models don't hold up too well. (PMG) is where I got some of those prices. Hey 'Rat', my son has a ProII and says that when he soaks his sharptail breasts in saltwater, drains them, and when he packages them it sucks moisture into the machine --- is that a problem and do all machines do that???????? Does that happen when you pkg fish fillets??? Gutz is a smart arss!!!
