    I have this mint 12mm 044 sitting on a shelf... Can't have more than a half dozen tanks of fuel through it.
    Too nice to use in my opinion and I have my eye on a 462..

    Any suggestions as to where to sell this, FB, Craigslist, some forums? I'm thinking it could sell for a really good buck? How much do you think I should list it for?

    Hate to sell it, but I'm not using it either.

    Thoughts?

    Oh man that’s a beauty! I’m sure there is a Stihl fanatic willing to pay top dollar for it.
    FBM seems to be the place most people look at first. The 462 is a great saw, but I’d want to keep that saw too. I’d use it for sure.
    If I hadn’t lost my mind buying saws the past couple years I’d sure make you an offer.

    Sweet looking saw. Should easily get a premium for that regardless where you sell it. Post it up here.

    Im all set with MS400, 462, 460, & 500i for bigger saws. Honestly dont know what id get for a bigger saw. No real use for anything bigger than the 500, not that i really "needed" it to begin with.

    You had that sitting on the living room floor for the photo. Either your single or it means it will soon belong to the future ex Mrs Fanatical1.

    I ran into a guy yesterday looking to sell me his Homelite C52. I’d never use the saw, but it’s still picking at my brain because the bar on it is worth asking price.

    Kinda reminds me of my 361 when i bought it from jo191145...Summer 2020. He bought it from a guy that didnt cut wood with it and Joe had maybe a dozen tanks of gas through it. Practically new. If i didnt get my 462 id give it serious consideration.
