Just looked and it's gone. Ill leave price and condition out of it because you and I both don't need that kind of anger...... let's just say I'm pissed enough for the both of us...

One for sale locally

How so? I've never owned a Dolmar but was always led to believe that they are a pro grade saw? Hard to find parts?

Hi folks, So I was casually surfing Craigslist last night looking for a bookcase for the living room and an ad that I was looking at said, at the bottom of the listing, "also a couple old non running chainsaws". Of course I saw this as divine intervention telling me to spend money on chainsaws...

Just had to comment.... The store only has the display model 2255 left. I had to ask, they said 10% off which makes it only $225. If I can get them down to 20% off I won't be able to say no :rare2:

Not that this is an interesting thread but, picked up a 2255 for $250 today. Brand new in box. Fired right up and ran really good after a tune. Should be a good saw at a great price :rock:

To answer your first question, no I didn't tickle the homie. I was pretty put off by the fact that it was advertised as a good runner, only to find neither I nor the owner could get it running using solid starting techniques. And as for the 2255, it's at a local Bi-Mart. They don't service but...

At $250 I'm having a hard time saying no....

Well folks, I drove almost 75 miles to pick up the saw (I honestly didnt mind the drive). I had asked that they not "pre-start" the saw so I could see how she fires when cold. After doing the standard starting routine and yanking on that SOB for about 10 straight minutes I left without a saw...

I talked her down to 75, I'm comfortable with the price as long as it's a good runner.

What size bar would y'all recommend? I was thinking of a 16". And just for fun, what's the biggest bar you have ran that still cut decent? I'm getting pretty stoked about picking it up tomorrow....

Thanks for all the feedback folks. I really appreciate it and am looking forward to picking up the saw this weekend. My thoughts are to put a 16" bar on it and have one mean camping saw. I will give my first impressions of the saw shortly.

BTW, talked em down to $75

Sold my husky 365 last fall because I don't need a saw that big. Bad choice. I only need something for camping, occasional firewood cutting. But I don't like junk and can't afford anything new or even close to New. I was looking at a homelite super 2 and homelite 150 but upon further review I...
