Hello to all,
Thanks to all those who posted responses to my last thread, you definitely help to confuse me more on which saw to purchase, just kidding. Going into this, I had no idea about the rise and fall of certain brands and loyalty, rightfully so, behind Stihl and the others. My first instinct is usually to buy the top and better my odds of completing the job without problems but there is a pretty large difference in prices and the needs of the job to be considered as well.
All that being said, my real question is about buying new saws off Ebay, mostly Echo, and peoples experience. I know I was reading a thread a night or two ago, but now of course I can't find it, from someone who acknowledged Stihl's quality but also, Echo's for the price. They also mentioned getting their last saw, an Echo, off Ebay because of the unbeatable price. This I have confirmed. I looked and found some pretty good deals on Echo's, also found some new Husqvarna's and even a couple new Stihl's.
This also raised the question of warranties and filling in cards and dealers and everything. This was discussed quite a bit in the thread, but again, I can't seem to find it. Any help would be great.
Thanks,
DD
