I got a very clean 2015 261c for $400 plus shipping no bar or chain.
I have a couple of parts saws if you can work on them. Mike
Hello, let me know if you're still in the market. [email protected]
So you want one for half price?
It's helpful to post a price range, this way you're not wasting time and neither are those who will send you their offers. It will also bring more offers in in if your price range is reasonable. If you leave the price open a lot of people won't waste their time as it looks like someone is trying to get something for nothing, at least that's how I perceive ads without prices anyway.
Good luck with your search

Be nice JR, I was just making a recommendation based in what I've seen work in the past.

$350 would be my budget. I know thats a long shot but I've seen near new ones sell for less here and other places. Thanks for the tip chipper!
Are you sure you're not referring to a MS260? That's what they sell for in nice shape. I've never seen a working 261 for that, I watched them for quite a while before buying my 261 new two weeks ago. The typical price range seems to be $475-$550 and they are almost always 2015 and earlier models.

Yes, I'm looking for an MS261.
A whole lot of them have sold in my price range, I did my homework before posting. Here's a few samples.

Those were very good deals but certainly not the norm and you can see that by how quickly they sold. All kinds of stuff gets sold for much less than its worth for various reasons.
I bought a pile of saws today that people elected not to repair and I know there's a couple 261's in it that I believe need P&C's. I'd of course have to verify thats all they need but I'd sell one in probably the $250-$300 range if you want to repair it yourself.
