I bought one at my local Costco for $150. It is a different model
number than the ones selling for $300+, but has the same capacity/range
specs and seems to have the same design. The only difference I could
discern is that it doesn't have the typical Lincoln blue/yellow paint
scheme (it's all blue with a red handle) and the paint finish is poor.
I'm guessing when someone at the plant has an off day in the paint
booth, they sell the result to outfits like Costco. Lucky for those of
us who can live with "blemished" tools...

I remember someone looking for a Lincoln floor jack last week. Well, I
was cruising
through Costco last night, and what do I see on an endcap but Lincoln
floor jacks...
They were the 2 ton, 20"(?) lift jobs, and I think the cost was $159.99.
Hope this is of use....
