    I got the sense that he didn't want to spend anymore money then he had to, on a smaller saw! He kinda a took a bath on the 461 (I didn't beat him over the head or nothing) and from talking to him I just dont think he wanted to drop $550-650 on a small pro saw.

    Sides it could have been worse he could have got a ms170 or ms180 :) :)

    Lil more junk in the trunk,, (I use that term loosely) today's find :)

    IMG_20151220_135418.jpg

    Spotted it on Craigslist last night, messaged the guy asked a few questions, then talked to him on the phone for a bit and he said if I was serious about it he would pull the ad so other people would quit texting him. I told yes I am serious and as long as, it is what you say it is, I will buy it. Setup a time to meet this morning, pulled the muffler cover, all was good, piston looks new. He even brought a snap-on compression tester in case I wanted to test it, I told him I didn't see the need, because the piston looked so nice!

    It's darn nice saw, 460R, 32" bar, 5 extra chains, tool kit, full gallon of bar oil, some 20" oregon (dont think it's for a stihl) bar & chain still new in the packaging. As a bonus he said since I was buying his saw, he was not going to need his 48" Stihl cant hook anymore :)

    He bought it new at Madens in Centralia WA shortly before moving to CO. He said he has only ran Stihl Motomix in it, and maybe 12-14 cans total. I'm happy, but I really need to stop looking on Craigslist!!!

    Yeah I have a "few" most of them being 1128's :) Seems that's about what I've fallen head over heels for....when I find one that I think is a decent deal, I just cant bring myself to say NO :)

    I'm going to do my savings account a favor and stop looking on Craigslist, eBay, and the Trading Post!! I have enough saws, need to get back to cutting and enjoying them, no more saws :)

    But remeber, they are an investment.

    You may not get every penny out of them, but it's not like a Big Mac that you'll chit out and never get anything but heart burn out of!!

    Good point, I have not thought of it like that,,,, yet :) I will keep that in mind.

    I think I made a good buy on the 461 yesterday & the 460 today, lets just say if I listed them for sale in the classifieds (for what I paid for them) I dont think they would make it a day before being sold!

    Not this time. But I got to play, cherry pick the wood I wanted, and they take care of the mess. They will be bulldozing this area come spring anyways.

    Well ability to cherry pick and be a wood snob and not have to clean the mess and be able to drive right to it is worth it!
