Hey guys, I need your input. A friend came across an interesting saw today. He found a pretty decent looking Stihl 084 av that needs a new home. I don't really have a need for a saw this big...(but define need?) My question....is this an obsolete saw? Can I still find parts? I don't know much about the condition and haven't heard it run yet. I just have a pic to show what he found. Any thoughts?
Have you grabbed it yet? That 084 is much better than 'decent' looking. IF you need parts, be prepared ... you'll probably not find them for cheap.
Holy crap!!!! You don't own it yet? That saw is in FANTASTIC condition - if the price is right, get it SOON!!! Cheers!
Probably use a few times, then flip it. I believe it has a 32" bar fro the pics. Who knows...might love it and keep it? I do have an addiction!
Like others have said, very nice looking saw. I'd try to get it And then post pics for my buddies at FHC
You could always buy it and give it to me.....lol! Great find! I like the $500 starting point, give it a stab and see what he says.
Any luck on that saw yet? I know it has only been a little while but it seems like weeks. These guys are having their keyboards short out. Jeeeesh!
That's the worst part of saw deals - waiting till it's officially in your hands!!! Good luck!! Cheers!
I traded my stock 084 for a echo pole saw and poulan 3816 and guy pay shipping both ways. I was asking $500 PHO. ) 84's are nice. I have sold 5 and owned 4. 2 woods ported, 1 race ported, 1 stock. Sold the ported ones $800-$900 and and 2 with b+c. Parts getting harder to find and pricey. When guys found out in Ohio I was getting out of the 084's they drove to my house picking up boxes of left over NOS and used parts.
