Contacted the seller and they were very dismissive. Just said to issue eBay Return. The item weighs almost 100lbs in packaging. They want me to load into my car, drive to a UPS, unload from my car, take my hand truck to get into UPS store for what? A refund of what I paid?
They know 100% they never inspected the item, sent an item that did NOT match their description and was NOT refurbished but instead USED (and / or returned after used and never inspected). This seller should not be trusted and buy definitely at your own risk
I do not think all of the effort to return is anywhere worth us being EVEN. And the seller knows this too which is why they DARE you to do the return process

FWIW - There is a 30% off code that works on their website (MWP30) that I found last week in another thread that still works, seems to bring the pricing to pretty much the same as the 20% code on Ebay. I went with the Ebay because of the extra 2 year warranty that is offered. I didn't look at every option, but seems like mostly the same selection.

Timely deal as well. We had some storms rip through here last week. We got spared but others are still without power. A tornado went down the highway a few miles from our house.
Edit. They have the dual fuels available in both a 4000w and a 3200w available for 400 with $80 off. The 4000w has electric start too but might not coke with the charger…stupid. So in the end you are paying about $100 more to use propane but still a huge discount from Costco.
Yes, there is the risk of gas gumming up your carburetor if you let it sit for extended periods and don't use ethanol-free gas, but that's something you can easily control, and you're supposed to "exercise" your portable generator once a month anyway, regardless of fuel source.
Thanks
According to their ratings, runtime on propane isn't all that great either, a typical 20lb propane cylinder would be gone in ~7 hours at full load, ~11 hours at 50% load.
Thanks
My requirement is cheap reliability and simplicity with less things to go wrong. I will likely never exceed 2900 running watts, my starting loads are minimal and I average less than 1000 watts during a power outage. Even less while camping, so this deal seemed like the best for my purposes.
Either way, its great that we can all buy a fairly reliable inverter generator at such a reasonable price. I have 3 Honda's, but reserve them for work, the RV and tailgating to keep the exhaust sound to a minimum with maximum reliability. If someone rips off the Furman while camping in isolated areas, I wont cry too much.
