I think all the 3018 pro machines are clones of each other. I'd have to spend more time looking at the listings to know for sure. I just sold mine used locally because I upgraded to bigger and better years ago, and it was collecting dust.
Interesting machine to learn on but it's limited in spindle speed/power, has no limit switches, the bed is aluminum so you can't surface it if you accidentally gouge it, and it's a bit interesting getting the driver installed and running it. It's not bad for less than $200, and you'll learn the basics. Just expect to upgrade if you plan to do much more than playing around and learning the basics.

The spindle looks a lot like the one that comes with most of them.

$185 with MPNW2X23A still valid. Still decent, so I wouldn't say "expired deal" just yet.
