I tried one of the cheap Rosewill sealers from Newegg last black friday ($20 I think), and it was COMPLETE junk. As I don't currently have one, decided to jump in on this deal. I really like the camo pattern as this will be used mostly for wild game. Little worried that there aren't many comments on this thread, is this just a lukewarm deal? Any comments on the unit itself?

I haven't used it yet, but it comes with a lifetime warranty, so that alone makes it worth trying out.

I bought a different model FoodSaver on Black friday a few years ago. Love it! The only complaints I found online were relative to difficulty sealing bags.. These complaints, I'm convinced, are from people UNDER estimating bag length. Ive never had a problem with bags sealing if they are long enough.
Also... The people selling bag material on eBay are selling quality material at a fraction of the FoodSaver price.

I have a slightly older model of the "Game Saver" bought it as a refurb. from midnightbox.com, works perfectly could not tell it was refurb.
These units are easy to use, though it doe's take getting used to making the correct size bag and sealing it.
The bag material: The FoodSaver.com site is the most expensive place to buy from, even with their so-called sales are nothing but a gimmick ! Plus they charge extra for shipping. Also, do not fall for the hype that you have to use only the "Game Saver" type material, they charge a lot more for it. I just bought a 5-pack box from Amazon.com and it was the regular bag material for a regular machine and it works perfectly, no problems at all. No shipping charge !
One last note, if you read the reviews on Amazon.com for any of these machines, you will find all kinds of hints and tricks for using these great machines.
This is a great price !

in for one. Not sure why these things are so expensive other than maybe the lifetime warranty... My $50 dollar kenmore one works pretty good, hoping this one is faster.
I have been using ziploc brand vacuum bags and the accessory hose to get the air out. Works good with fish and deer.

Is the gamesaver the same as the others or is there something special about this model?

The GS Bronze vertically flips for convenient storage and comes with a lifetime warranty. I don't think the other GS models have either of these.

To me it is basically the same thing, works just like the other models.
This is a excellent price especially with all the extras included.

Great deal! Needed a replacement for our original FoodSaver. Can't beat this deal anywhere and with 5% CashBack too.
Definitely wouldn't have found it without your post.
Thanks OP.

I liked the camo!
Bought one earlier, just bought one again for a friend after bragging about how good the deal was.
