That sounds kinda high to me? HF has a gun you can get for less than $70 (in store) and I've never heard any complaints. I got the Eastwood with all the goodies and only spent $150 if I remember correctly.

if you can buy it at eastwood you can get it cheaper elsewhere from somebody that actually manufactures stuff and doesn't just print catalogues

I'm going to stop by Harbor Freight tomorrow and pick up their set up tomorrow. It's on special right now for $59.99. I've heard it's not too bad.

Don't the parts have to be baked once they are sprayed. How would you go about that without getting divorced?

Get a used stove/oven to bake the stuff in and plug it in the garage. (top of the stove doesn't have to work, but the oven should. I heard the fumes from powdercoating baking can smell really bad.

Yep, you'll need to head down to the used/junk appliance place in your town and pick up an old electric oven. Every town has at least one of those places.
I hadn't heard about the fumes/smell before, but it makes sense. I'm setting mine up in my shop across town so I can bake and run.
