I prowl Craigslist daily for all things firewood and found this last night.

Stihl MS 361 - $250 (Amsterdam)

Stihl MS 361 like new nothing wrong with this chain saw firm on price call

Luckily I searched exactly when the guys post went online because I was the first caller. Picked it up this afternoon. He said he got about 15 calls with guys begging and bribing but he was an honest guy who lived up to his promise. Needless to say I'm pretty happy. Not exactly "like new' but there is nothing wrong with it or the price.

Well off to give it a try.

Nice grab man. If you havent run one before you will love the 361, at least I do.

That's a 20'" bar on the 361 and the chain was pretty dull so not wanting to waste time I took the 18" off my 310 and took it out for a spin...I'm really impressed. Other than the bar looking a little rough cosmetically the saw is in really great shape. I think he could have fetched quite a bit more. I've seen similar ones on eBay go for over $400.

AWESOME!!! Good on you for finding that gem. Looks like it is a trip in the dishwasher and a new bar away from looking brand spanking new to me. Great saw at a great price.
