First off let me just say that I am not selling ANYTHING here. I just had an auction finish on ebay for a completely rebuilt J-Red 910. 86cc with an entire new topend and new ignition. I also tracked down both spikes, a handguard and put on an almost new 20" windsor speed tip and 3/8 chisel chain. I also replaced a cracked rear handle half with a nos piece. I even put a complete master rebuild kit in the carb.The saw is mechanically perfect and though it looks used it should be a strong running saw for a long time. My reserve was $300.00 and twice the bidding only went to a bit over $200.00. Anyone who has ever tried to replace a complete topend knows that they can run $300.00 plus on a saw this size and that's not to mention the almost impossible to find two piece ignition.
Now there is a homelite 750 about to end with a broken handle, no filter, no maniflod plate, no carb bolts, a hard tip bar with no chain and no spikes. It probably needs a carb kit too. Last I checked the 750 was up to $280.00.
I know that a 750 is a bit bigger, but how in the world does a finished saw ready to work full of new rare parts not sell and a project saw with missing parts some of wich are not easily found go like hotcakes? I must be going crazy. I thought that my reserve was more than fair for one of the last true jonsereds of this size.
