I just got back. I don't know if i hit a home run with the money end of things. But i think these saws are just about as close to new as you can get ( the 260 more so then the 440, but both look in very good condition) And i'm okay with the money end of it because these saws are gonna run for a loong time, and for being a first time buyer at that shop, like litefoot said, i don't wanna ruin a good thing,. I'm self employed and i know everyone needs to make a living. Got both saws for 750 and each saw got a new chain, plus the one on the saw. I bought some pre mix, bar oil, and some files and i don't know if it was his cost or not, but he gave me a pretty good break on that stuff( both air filters looked in good shape). So maybe i could of found a "cheaper" deal somewhere else, but i think this way i got the "better" deal hopefully in the long run. And he told again before i left, if something isn't right or you don't like them, bring them back no questions asked.
( he sold the 460 yesterday, and a guy was looking at the 440. I'm glad i put money down yesterday:biggrinbounce2
