ho ya that not a deal, that's pretty much what they go for new ... you can get good deals sometime but it is hard to take their word on the amount of usage it has, I bought mine used a 359 husky which are highly praise, I went and check it out, a older guy in a small town and I knew someone who knew him so its not like he could lie too much about it, I can't remember exactly how much I paid for it but I believe it was $600 if I remember correctly, I thought at the time it was expensive but he wouldn't budge on the price and said he only used it for a few years and only cut a few cord a year with it. I know they all say that but I took his word for it and gave him his price... that's been almost 10 years now and never had a problem with it.
What about buying new for the contract then selling it?
Very possible. Also looking into getting the Makita/Sachs rebuilt, but would like to have somethin other than my 261 ready for this week. I’m used to having 2 or ever 3 saws, not just one.
Helpers have saws & knowledge, so not super important.
