395XP Charity Auction for Jasha

[bryanr2]

It won't be any time soon but one day I will get to one of the PNW gtg's.

u sell that 288 lite?

 

[cowroy]

Yep. I needed to fund a couple other projects, and since I got it I have put maybe three tanks of fuel through it. (ported) 372xp fa life! I posted not to long ago that unless it's a heck of a deal, my CAD is gone. I have some things to finish up, but it's all about practicality now. The only saw I'm gonna have settin' around is my ole Mac 2-10g.

Brad, other than Stumpy's M/M and a new 7-pin rim sprocket and bearing it's a unmolested 395. I'll estimate 50-60hrs of run time, sporting a 28" bar. Quality syn oil and never any E10.

Just a general question, is the 28" bar/chain included this deal????

and the plot,,,, it thickens,,,

It's time to spill the beans. I have in my possesion a LIKE NEW 395XP. This saw was graciously donated by Joe Kidd. Talk about a heart of gold! The saw recently had a tune up including: air filter, fuel filter, and spark plug. This thing is nearly spotless! Compression is a super healthy 175 PSI on a SnapOn gauge. It popped on the first pull and was running on the second, and that's coming straight out of the box it was shipped in with a dry tank.

I've chosen, with permission from Jeff, to auction this saw instead of including it in the raffle. I'm doing this simply in an effort to raise the most money we can to send to Jasha. I feel that we already have plenty of very nice donations to give away in the raffle thread. So, I feel the charity drive would most benefit from selling this saw in an auction.

Please make your bids public, right here in this thread. Yes, I want to see you guys bidding each other up! Please do not mix this up in the raffle thread. I'm doing this in a seperate thread simply to keep it manageable.

This auction begins now, and will end at 10:00 PM Eastern Time next Friday evening October 26. The highest bid posted on or before 10:00 PM wins the saw. If you post at 10:01, your bid will not count. I have to make hard fast rules in order to avoid any confussion or misunderstandings.

Someone's going to get a VERY nice saw here. Just remember what it's going for, and bid accordingly!

It's after 10:00 PM Eastern time, so the saw is sold to the anonymous bidder for $1,350. I want to thank you all for your participation! I have the saw with me here in Murray and will leave it with Mastermind to be ported, then on to it's new home.

I made a few cuts with the 395 today at the GTG. It's a very nice saw indeed. It's now in Randy's van, headed off for a little fine tuning
