While it sounds like a good deal, I would have reservations. The 880 uses the large bar mount, so won't interchange bars with the smaller Stihls like the 660. Its a heavy beast, and while it would be great on an Alaskan Mill or occasional giant log, its too heavy for general cutting. The powerhead alone weighs as much as a 660 with 25" filled with fuel and oil.
I do have a 3120xp, and its similar in size and weight to the 880. I have only used it a few times, and most often just reach for my 066BB or 660.
Did you ask the dealer what kind of deal he could give you on a 660 with 36"?
