I posted the other deal too.
maybe you canbuy one at $479 then return it with $599 receipts?
How does it compare to those ones sells on eBay?
This is like the TV market… using a 'brand-name' to sell Chinese rebadges:
Looks like a generic Chinese generator:

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/china-huaquan-brand-2kva-ce-…or just get a generic off ebay, $378 for 50% more output:
https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/162258824734not saying this is not a deal, just saying it's a generic generator and you may get what you pay for.
alternative is to spend 4x as much for a Honda with a proven track record https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/414449Good find, thanks, but those aliexpress links are a lot more expensive, indicating this is more of a good deal.
Plus, Stanley/Costco warranty.
tell canon to lower their L lens price,it looks like any other generic lens.
not saying this Stanley is better,but it's not identical,so not the same,seeing a brick mortar store still has rrp $1299,and discount to $800 mark occasionally,it's now similar price as Ebay generic branded,I'd try this any day over a similar speced Ebay unit with same output,a 2kw max output,1.6kw rated Gentrax,one of the most well rated Ebay generater is same price@$479.That Ebay item is from MytopiaSTore.

I have one and it is basically identical internally as a Yamaha 2kva
Think I paid $699 from Costco about a year ago, only used a few times.Saw these yesterday in the flesh.
Look like cheap chinese units and I couldn't find anything on the units or boxes regarding the internalsFar out… I don't even need or want a bloody generator and I'm seriously tempted to buy this!
What's wrong with me!?!
Tell me about it…
it's same price as one of the most well rated Ebay 2kva generater,Gentrax
did some googling,people claim it's a rebadged yamaha.
Yeah but the Costco one…. UNLIMITED warranty.
That's what's so appealing. Ebay pricing on a brand name genny, with lifetime warranty as a Costco member.
You can't ask for a better deal, hence the massive temptation.yea,thats what I meant
even a ebay one sells at similar price.someone online claims the internal of this Stanley looks like a yamaha unit
buy one if you think you might need one in the future,cause when you need one,your $479 then won't get you the same thing.
I bought it as a back up,cause my first one is a Gentrax,being not a Honda,better to have a back up@028: Gotcha now. Sorry, I thought you were saying the Gentrax was a rebadged Yamaha.
But yeah, if this Stanley is a Yamaha with a different shell like some are saying- that makes it an even better deal!
The sticker price at Auburn is still $600 so where did OP see this lower price?
Thanks.
Costco Churchill center in Adelaide.did you ask the staff?
Will ask tmrw. Thanks.
I bought this at $600 and am happy with it. Well, I was until it became cheaper.
I'm not an expert and haven't used it enough to know the real quality, but starts well, runs quiet and powers things.
