I bought my 1 ton from Harbor Freight, 129.99 on clearance. It's a very good lift, requires about an hour worth of assembly (if putting it together by yourself). It has lifted 13B's 3 or 4 times now with ease, no sign of any parts warping or cracking, best value by far!

I second Harbor Freight, they always have stuff that's good enough for most people and cheap.

I picked mine up new at a local pawn shop years ago when I did my first rebuild.
