Prices No Longer on Stihl Sites

[LoveStihlQuality]

Just noticed that all the Stihl dealer site have stopped listing prices. They all say contact dealer. WTF

You want the physics explanation or a simple one? gravity " pushes " the liquid through the hose into the nozzle and since liquids have a sort of film the airflow helps " pull" the liquid as well.. I have sold a dozen or so of them to a gent that uses them for mosquito control for parties. That is for liquid.. it can also do a powdered media.. IIRC I have only serviced units that used liquid.

220 and 450 are gravity feed 430 has a pump

The 220 I ran would not spray up at 45 degrees or more
And done some reading on the 430 will spray straight up
And sorry to side track the OP

Just checked my app, yeah they all say to contact dealer for price. Does this mean stihl is dropping their centralized pricing model?

I used to work for a nationwide retailer that had pricing zones, meaning things were priced differently in different towns. I could drive 35 miles and the prices were different that at the town I live in..Maybe Stihl is getting ready to do this.

So Stihl doesn't have an "MSRP" on their saws? Which I beleive would give dealers control over pricing? That, in my opinion, could go either way. Some may give a better deal while others could gouge a person. I tend to think the latter of the two.

The pro chainsaws do seem call for price. All of the pole pruner prices are present. As of now.

Stihl uses dsrp dealer suggested list price.

To bad one can't buy factory direct anymore. Used to be the way to save a little $$. There may be a few cases where you can but I haven't heard of any lately.

Our local farm store still has the prices listed on the saws but they aren't the pro models.

 

[LoveStihlQuality]

So far most other products prices still listed for now but only a couple saws. Used to be I could figure out the door pretty close. DSRP - my x% discount + sales tax and usually a chain

A little side note. I hate when you go into a store and the prices aren't on the equipment.
