You really think so? Do you think I am going to import these en masse? Do you think that somebody who has AUD$400 to spend is actually in the market for an AUD$1300 365 anyway?
On a grand scale, anybody in the market for a saw like this will never have bought a big name saw anyway. Those that want a 365 will still buy one.
As mentioned what this thread has shown is don't underestimate the Chinese as they don't care what they copy and inside China nobody can touch them.
Anyway, it's Saturday yet I still have to go to work to support this great country of ours and pay more taxes. What are you doing this weekend to support yours?
I believe that !
not now, of course, but as years go by and if the fake Husky proves a good saw and word spreads around, I think then some peoples will seriously consider the chinese as an alternative for the real 365 therefore stealing customers away, customers that otherwise (or at the moment) would need a reliable saw and would have gone to Husky for 365. sorry but it is what I think.
EDIT: in Romania I see many guys, that cut firewood for a living, even working at the forest with chinese saws. when you look at them and see how many problems they have with the saws, you can`t believe that a professional would chose a saw like that. and you are amazed by the dexterity with which they open the saw in situ and fix the problem. I am not talking about fine, reliable copy of Husqvarna 365, I am talking about completely unknown chinese saws. One of them is my uncle, that has the same saw I first bought; he`s been working that "thing" for two years now and it is happy with it. he paid 30$ for it.
