Found 2 Brand new NOS MS200 Rear handle saws at my local Stihl dealer

[Wilbah]

Put what i had down in my pocket goin back next week to pick em up.... I'm pretty pumped about that!! I politely asked if i could get 1 of them with out ever having fuel in it for long term storage? He said No F'n Way!!

Why? Does he need to "test" a new saw from the factory before selling it?

 

[Wilbah]

No I didn't have enough Cash with me at the time. $1389

Stihl Policy?? I have no clue why, putting ethanol additive crap that passes for fuel these days, is not what I want in a brand new saw I'm either gonna sell or keep for long term storage for future use....

 

[SEAM]

You'll never use it, believe me....

 

[Wilbah]

So you think i should sell instead of having a back up of my fav limbing saw? Thats no longer in production.....

Bring him a can of premix or just buy the stihl brand and have him put that in the saws. The stuff is designed without all the bad stuff from the fuel pump and saws can be stored with fuel inside without worrying for about 5 years!

Great little saws you are getting!

If you can swing the money, buy both. If he insists on running both saws, have him use MotoMix canned fuel, and get the boxes for both. Sleep on your decision for months/years....
