not mine, just thought it was interesting, not sure if good deal or not http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/tls/4807922916.html
Isnt that about what they cost with a 36" bar new? And who just randomly drives a saw to someone? What if the person is in montana??
Way too high. A new one with a 42" is usually around $1700 if the dealer isn't asking full msrp. The 47" bar is around $300.
Ok thats what I thought. I honestly didnt think they were over $2000 then the extra bar...no idea the cost on that.
Either his buddy gave it to him good or he's trying to start a career in used car sales. As Mike said, $1700 or so is the typical price tag on one new. Just looking at the photos, that thing makes the 3/4 wrap and elastostart handle look tiny! (Item's that usually look large on other saws!!)
There's on (half-wrap?) collecting dust on my dealer's shelf. I have no idea what I'd use it for but it's been tempting more than once and I could have it for cheap I'm sure.
That's exactly what I would do with it. I'd like to get into milling but I'm not sure if I could stop at a chainsaw mill. My FIL likes to work with wood (furniture/cabinetry) as a hobby and I know a few others that would buy premium hardwoods. I know where there's a log trailer with a grapple loader, gonna need a bigger truck, and how big of a band mill do I need to get a 28" cherry on, etc.....
I'd just love to run one of them "bad-boys" on a big-assed tree just to say that I did run a saw "THAT BIG"!!!!!!!
How do they compare to a 3120? I've lugged one of those around and it was a heavy SOB. Cut the 7-trunked 60+ inch maple pretty well though
It depends on the 3120 coil. If it's a 12k rpm coil the 3120 was stronger and easier to run. The newer 880 is lacking to me compared to the older 088 and 084.
