Seconded. Even if they're about to roll out a new version, I dunno what they could add to it that would make one regret buying the Mk. 4 for cheap.

there’s rumors the new one is also a vibrator

Yeah, I understand the difference in evacuation, but it sounded like you were having a problem with the seal, not the handling of the contents.

I don’t quite understand how chamber vacuums displace air from the bag like water pressure does, but I’ll find a video on YouTube or something. I thought they just created a vacuum in a structured container (rather than a mere unstructured bag) and then sealed off the contents before air can return to the evacuated space (including the parts enclosed by the bag).

they don't displace air "from the bag", they reduce the atmospheric pressure in the whole chamber and the thing comes to an equilibrium, then it seals the bag at that lower pressure equilibrium. have you ever brought a bag of chips or an empty bottle onto an airplane before? noticed how the bag or bottle swells up in size when you're mid flight, and if you open & close a bottle mid flight then it will be depressed and partially crushed when you land? that's the same thing as a vacuum chamber sealer

That’s what I thought, until Paul made the analogy to submerging a ziploc. Thank you!

well, submerging a ziploc is also basically the same thing!
