    I got a smokin' deal on an older but, new 372. Has less than 100 hours on it. Tom of compression. Just needs a hand guard. A limb busted it off after only felling for 2.5 weeks. It was definitely my turn when I found this deal. Funny thing is, I have known this guy for years and we just hadn't talked saws. When I asked him to sell me is worn out saws, he offered this instead. I'm tickled pink. God Bless

    Well, I tried posting a pick from the phone. So, I'll try from the office computer, While I wait on it to arrive in my email, I'll tell you a bit more.

    He bought the saw in 2014. Used it for 2.5 weeks, busted it, then threw it in his wood shed/garage at a later date. He left it in the back of his truck for a bit before putting it in the garage so, the Orange faded a bit. It has a few stains and a scratch on the clutch cover. Other than that, she is what you see. Man, the Lord Blessed me today with one smoking deal. I'm going to get my uncle go over it to check the lines and such to ensure it doesn't have any leaks and it should be ready to go after a new bar/

    Thanks Tom!!!!!!! You 'da man!!!!!!!

    BTW, I am using Chrome.

    I paid $200 for it.

    He told me this saw would out cut the 372 xpw's he has. Best one he has had as far as an XP went. I don't know as I haven't fired it up yet with the busted muffler, ( I think I left that out of the first post). I did put fresh fuel in it and ordered everything tonight but, the hand guard. I got a uncle that gave me one. Not going to fire it up until I get a muffler, hand guard on it, and check out everything to make sure it is tight and leak free. Where he carried it in the back of is truck, the dang thing was matted with oil where it laid on it's side. So, it's top end plastics are coming off to clean up the jug down in there. It doesn't look bad but, I want the saw to run normal temps, not hot. I got a heck of a deal. I'm ticked. God Bless guys

    Yes he did. And, Auto correct is not my friend. Neither is my spelling and typing. I'm doubled whammed every time I post with those two variable fighting against me. :rofl: :lol: I'll spell something wrong twenty times and never see it. If the red line don't pick it up, you can forget about me seeing it. For some reason, it don't always pick it up either.:hair:

    I don't mind you saying that. I think that about everyone who gets better deals than me. :D

    I like the emojicons too. God Bless

    Hey WV Mountaineer, want try "tagging" someone in a response? It's easy, and the "alert" shows up that someone has called you out(most times) or hitting "Reply," which alerts a member to the fact that they've been "quoted"......
