Original thread below for reference:

I believe I had read, recently, that Honda had prohibited internet sales or some such by their dealers. I know that when I had done a search for either the 1/2000, I could not find any direct sellers.

Can you show how to do this with them? (Or, is the Northern Tool equivalent at whatever prices they have about what we'd expect, anyway?) We expect to get one or the other just before we go, as backup to our (to-be massive) wind and solar supply for the ~1300AH bank and shoreside tool power...

Thanks.

I have purchased two EU2000i's from Mayberry, one for my boat and one for my sports management business. Great customer service, quick shipping. (EU2000i is great generator, but be sure to THOROUGHLY drain carb if you are not using it for a long time. They have very fine holes in the main jet assembly that tend to plug with varnish. No problem if you use it regularly or drain thoroughly.)

Mr. Kranz--

Thanks for the tip about Mayberry. As it happens, I am looking for Honda EU2000i, so I'll check into Mayberry. The next-best price I've found for the Freedom 10 is at Fisheries Supply in Seattle, Washington. $720. They have a fine website, if you'd like to check 'em out:

Meanwhile, let's see if anyone else responds to my inquiry about WMJ.

Thanks again.

I have no info on WMJ, but like you I am in the market for a Freedom 10 . I will watch for other input.

I will state that the overhead for internet marketing is low and some businesses offer very good deals on this kind of product online. I have twice purchased Honda generators from Mayberry, a New Jersey company that offers a similarly huge discount for online sales.

Shopping around for a Freedom 10 Inverter/Charger, I ran across a supplier called "WMJ Marine" in Carlsbad, California. Their price is hundreds of dollars less than anyone else I found on the Web. (West Marine price: $899.99; WMJ: $579.)

Anyone have experience dealing with this company? Are they honest, competent, and reliable? Their website is attractive, sophisticated, and professional, but we all know if something is too good to be true it probably isn't.

So, what's the take on WMJ Marine?

Thanks in advance, and smooth sailing to all,
