The best suggestion I can give in regards to where you're at in the hobby right now is to study up on anything you consider getting at home before you go to the store. It is also far better to trust the info you get from us or somewhere else online than what the employees at the store will tell you because they're not always sure / honest. On another matter, welcome to the forum.
What did you get instead of the puffer?
