This guy is an arborist. And says he is having money issues with the cold and deep snow he can't work. His saws are only a couple years old but all seem to have some cosmetic damage, from banging around in the truck and ever day usage. I only buy ones I think I will use. Not the best for flipping. I have passed on some good deals . But I just can't buy them all.
 
I texted him if he still has it tomorrow I will take it. He has someone else that buys from him. If I say no he sells to them and it seems to be like 5 minutes after I say no .. so I will see. Kinda kicking myself on this one.
 
just had one ported and they are very impressive saw stock let alone ported. $150 seems like a great deal if it is a runner
 
I have a Buddy just like him. His business slows down and he sells everything he has cheap. Get a few good jobs and he buys everything brand new no matter the price. Just hope he doesent discover eBay or Craig's list.
 
Specially since the 361 is a better saw.
I have to agree with Troll on this one. The 362 may have a bit more power than the 361, but the cost was additional weight. The Power-to-weight ratio of the 361 is matched by very few saws.

Speaking of which, this winter I really got a chance to use the cold weather setting on the 361, and now I appreciate it. Idling in cold weather at the summer setting was really rough. I flipped the boot and it smoothed right out. Made a huge difference. Even the acceleration up was better.
