Too cheap to say no?

Got offered this Shindaiwa 488p for $65usd ($100au).
5 tanks old before the owner dropped a limb on the top air filter cover and crushed it. He then put it away and hasn't used it since.
.
I would be keen to pick it up and wait to find someone wrecking one and buy the air filter gear.
What do you guys think?

If you have a use for it...... heck, even if you don't........ what does $100 Aussie get you these days?
Probably not even a real bad hangover?
Chances are the part is available new for not a lot of extra cost and you get a good low hour power saw for little outlay.

Solid saw. I flipped one last year and kind of regret it.

Looks to be around an $11 US part, for that I would get it and fix it but I've got a problem with buying stuff I have no NEED for but can't walk away either if it's a good deal.

Several of them in use around here
They were 450.00 or so usdl
When they stopped selling them here
Have a good reputation parts are still available.
I'd buy one if i needed one.

Wrong thread. This belongs in the "you suck" thread.

I bought one new a few years back. I love them. I recently flipped it to fund a 241cm. But man I have CAD bad. Especially in the 50cc class.
