My best 2015 score, a couple months ago sifting through CL posts, I ran across a yard sale ad with chainsaws in title. Clicked on first picture and it was an aquarium and a table. Second picture was a Poulan pro and a MS200T. Thought for sure they'd be gone. Called the number and surprisingly they were still available. The lady said she wanted $100 for the big one and $50 for the small one, the small one needed work. I made the drive to check them out, the MS200T was the small one, the chain was hanging off of it is all that was wrong with it, so I paid her and took it with me. Still has factory chain, still sharp, and has light bar. First picture is from CL posting, second two pictures are after I got it home and blew the dust off, and put chain back on.image.pngimage.png image.jpeg
 
I'm on the fence as to wether or not this is a you suck deal. Paid a hundo for the TS760 suspect crank issues. It pulls over hard but a 100 times worse with compression release off. I quit pulling it once it hit 140 as I couldn't keep saw on the floor. Echo CS-670 very clean except it has been straight gassed. The Echo I can flip tomorrow to a friend after fixing it. Not sure on the 760. Have a friend that does a lot of concrete work so it might be worth fixing and selling. My other though was ignition is good on it so parts if needed for the 075 if ever needed down the road.

Update......The TS760 runs perfect. Found the decompression wasn't popping out completely. It idles and revs nicely. I have to go buy a blade for it. The top handle part that surrounds the carb is cracked on one side. Might have to see if Shaun is up for a little welding. I need to remove the decompression button and clean it. I looked down the carb throat and piston looks nice on top side.

Picked these up yesterday.

Very nice, though I believe the Stihls may need to be shipped to @SawTroll, I've heard he likes them almost as much as Echos.......LOL!

I'd really like to find a 254XPG out here in the frozen wasteland of Utah.

Pictures of the Dolmar 133, please?

Sorry, it's a Sachs Dolmar 113, I don't know a damn **** about them, this one is superdirty, and I will be shocked if it work at all.

All my orange/white ones goes to Sawtroll, I know he loves them.
That said, it's very difficult to ship to him. He lives in what we could say is a desert land. I think it's 20 miles to his next neightbour.

Yes, I am familiar with this geography. As I live very close to the center of Utah.
