Check the bar studs... Looks like they may be pulled.... Hard to tell from the pics though

You're pretty sharp, they do look like they're sticking out a bit more than they should be in the second pic.

The link is active, but I bet that saw is gone for that price. Around here it would last for about 30 minutes for that price.

In the bay area? You must be kidding. I lived in that area for many years. The flip side to your argument is that unlike here, there is still a ton of money in the bay area. There is a very high rate of online people in the bay area using CL, and the populatoin of the SF bay are is over 7 million people. Lots of loggers and woodland owners in the Monterey, Santa Cruz, Marin, Sonoma, Mendo and Lake Counties, etc., never mind the Sierras. A lot more than you think. Also there are hounds here on AS and in other states cruising CL for deals, and they will pay for shipping. Your posting here justs makes even more people interested. That saw would last all of 30 minutes here in the Portland area. Studs or no studs, flaws or no flaws. You have to jump on those deals, they do not last. Its a used plane Jane 046 with a 3/4 wrap, but stihl a pretty good deal.

Update: I called the guy in Santa Cruz. Nice guy, says the saw is in great shape, starts and runs great. No problems. He said that he is reserving it for a guy to look at coming down from Marin this afternoon (around 2pm). If the Marin guys does not buy it, then he will open it up for sale to someone else. The guy from Marin called him last night, and hence locked up the saw until he looks at it. Some folks do that in CL, others sell to the first guy with cash at the door. So unless you are the guy from Marin...

Stihl 361, 28" bar, used 3 hours - $395 (NE Portland)

I bought this new last year to take down two trees; I sharpened the chain, and need the money now more than the chainsaw. It has less than 3 hours use, probably closer to 2.

Yep, I called the guy an hour and twenty after he posted the 361 and it was gone too. *poof*
