Just a word of warning about cheap welders in all that glitters does not always last more than a few hours use, you maybe lucky and get a good one I may just be unlucky.
I have a cheap from china ebay £130 'cut40' plasma cutter, that went back twice before I got one that would work for more than 30 seconds before the thermal trip cut in. I also was brought a cheap 'Giant WSE200 ac/dc 200amp' by my family a few years ago, while great at first it soon started to play up while running on AC for ali and now only works on DC. My welding consumables supplier is not even willing to look at it let alone repair it.
I'm not saying don't buy one for personal use how ever I would say you could buy better at second hand prices. If you are planning or looking to arrange a group buy of some thing of this nature just go in to it with your eyes fully open and understand that you could be setting your self up for some flack if it the products are not 100%.
