Earlier, you mention a machine with features you wont use, but as you learn most of the features become useful. Like myself you want the rolls royce dogs danglies with all the bells and whistles, but for the skoda price.
I have to agree with @Richard. the wp26 torch at 200 amps is awful, and will spoil your ali experience. To keep your self sensible price wise id suggest something like , if you want new with warrenty, these are complex boxes of tricks. Though quality stuff second hand is always an option it pays to know what your buying and be able to test it.

To get the extra 20 amps or so you pay many more dollars. These machines though not the cheapest will work, leaving spare cash to develop into wanting pedals, coolers and small water cooled torches. Also dont forget to factor in the argon costs.
