    That's the one his son took, so I didn't get it. A two-eighty-something-XP. The sticker was half missing.

    On the bright side, the 460 and 365 run, and compression on the 441 feels good when spinning the flywheel.

    Looks like one of the newer/last model 288XP's.Much larger sticker on the starter housing than my 1st year 288XPW has.

    damm, I don't check Craigslist as often as I used to. Smoking deal right there.....congrats!

    I remember when I was one of the few chainsaw guys on Craigslist in NEO back in the day. I was the only guy running wanted ads. Then wojo started to copy my ads and such. The hobby has definitely become more popular.

    Thanks! I've only been doing it a couple of years, and it is pretty competitive. The good deals get snapped up very quickly.

    Akron is only about 40 minutes east of me.

    Not bad, about the same distance away as your Homelite was (Avon).

    Congrats buddy.

    I know... I was reading your thread. Then went to Craig's list. They had what looked like a beautiful 460 on there for $425. I must been a few minutes late.

    I was contacted about the 365 before I even had it in my possession. It's SPF. I'll let the buyer out himself.
