So here is what $132.00 buys you for chainsaws these days....

The damn bar on my 441CM cost more than that.....
 
Just got what SHOULD be my last 45 last night (yeah sure - said that before) . Power head has never been oiled or fueled. Bar was clean and fresh. Chain came in it's torn-open plastic bag. It might have cut one branch. Got a scrench and bar-cover too. No file - have only gotten a file in one of five Quake deliveries.

For those of you trying to make a choice - The 38 is a light fun saw to run, but the 45 is definitely worth the added $$. If I were getting only one, I'd get the 45. My $0.02
 
K my 4518 just came!! Its in like new or new condition. Has an oil stain on front muffler like it was test run. There is no scuffing on handle, no dust or chips, don't think its ever been in wood. Was not inn the original box. Chain and bar were brand new. I also got a scrench and instruction book with it.

I am resisting the urge to fuel it up even though brought fuel with me to work to try it. I want to see compression first.

Missed my chance at stardom,,,, again.

That's good insight. Thank you. I have two 45's coming tomorrow I believe, unless the storm slows things down over there.. FedEx has a warning about a storm alert..

I think I'm going to order two 38's and just not bother with the 41's.
 
The last few I have seen folks get are new I wonder if there just selling new ones at that price? Mine was new just not in an earthquake box just a plain box. Bar still had paint on the rails and chain was new in the bag. Maybe was a damaged box? There just seems to be to many new saws being delivered. I think there just selling them and can at that price as there is no warrenty. Wonder what they cost to them when they buy a container load?

I wonder what I can get them for if I drive over there........hmmm

I've thought the same, it's only an hour to Cumberland. I didn't find a mention of a retail store on their site though. Probably would need a contact at the company.

That's what I'd do and get like 10 of um! Would think they at least discount um $20 they pay to ship.
