Sold 288 XP Lite

[aswan]

Husqvarna 288 XP for sale. I bought it from the original owner. He bought it new during an ice storm and used it sparingly for firewood duty. I converted it to a high top with the parts kit from Bailey's. Saw has 175 lbs compression, starts right up and oils well. I also replaced the drive sprocket and plug. I bought it to cut some big oak on my in laws property and don't need a saw this big anymore. Piston, ring and jug all look good. $425 plus $30 shipping for the power head only.

I agree completely. I had been considering selling mine, but if this is all they are worth it can collect dust. I might just get a nice box for long term storage and forget about it.

This saw is IMO a screaming deal.

Yeah, that's a really good deal. I had an all OEM High Top 288XP. I sold it here locally a couple of years ago for $550. I probably could have got more for it, if I had hung onto it a little longer.
But I got it for free from a neighbor in CA, and all it needed was fuel line, a new spark plug, and a really good cleaning. I used it for a couple of years. I did okay on the deal.
Though it is one of three saws I regret selling.

Nice saw. Buyer is lucky that I did not see it when posted. Mine won't sell that low.

As of yet, it doesn't appear that this deal is done.

Its a done deal, I'm just having PayPal issues.... Don't change your email address or PayPal gets kind of stupid.

If I can't resolve the issue soon, I'll next day a PO money order.
