Who said Stihl chain was the only expensive chain?

Whiners.... if you want the convenience of buying one chain a year "off the shelf", pay list for it. If you want more, buy a 100 foot roll.

:agree2:

eBay confirms that Stihl Chain is the most expensive!

Bailey's prices:

3/8 50 ga round chisel pre-spun loops = 20¢/DL
25' roll (410DL) 18.2¢/DL,
50' roll (820DL) 15.2¢/DL,
100' roll (1640DL) 13.4¢/DL

You save about $100 on a big roll over buying loops which just pays for the breaker/spinner. You don't actually start saving money till the second roll. I don't use enough chain to warrant it. I just buy loops when I need them and don't complain about 20¢/DL.

I buy most of my chains at Baileys. Great prices, they have exactly what you want and they usually ship within 24hours. Good shipping rates too. Whats not to like?? I usually only purchase Stihl chain at county fairs where they make loops to order at dogg cheap prices. Buy 5 or 10 loops at a whack. I still have several boxes of 3/8 .050 RS chain kicking around from some years ago. Aggressive stuff!

I paid $27.50 for a 20" Stihl loop....

Yeah, I've seen some real winners. $28 for a 16" Oregon loop, $30 for Stihl but he'd have to make the loop. When I said "Wow, that's 50 cents a link", he reassured me it was "worth it".

Then I thought I had a deal on a big batch of Husky chain, all 3/8-50, turns out it was all safety chain and the price had gone up in the interim.
