When they were still available over here a few years back I remember seeing them advertised for around $4000 new.

Around my parts theres a saying that if you throw enough crap against a wall some of it will stick. Thats what that guy is hoping for.
Theres another guy on Ebay trying to get $250 for an old Remington Mighty mite from Monkey Wards. That saw has been on there for about a year. Another guy trying to sell a beat up can of Remington 2 stroke oil for $300.

really? As i do recall seeing a guy on here advertising a 2007 unfired unfueled 090AV from New Zealand and said he paid around 3200 for it.

Yeah, I also remember a guy selling his used 090AV for $2500 and said that he paid $4000 new for it several years ago. By comparison a 660 is $2000 new over here.
I have that book read it cover to cover a few times, I want err need that poster!!!!!
I would of payed the $4500 just to WATCH that take down.

Don't tell wife there ain't no trees here! She'll wonder what all the saws are for.
Actually, when I bought my 460 from my local Stihl guy I ordered it with a 24" bar. When I went in to pick it up he had it out joking with the boys about that surfboard size bar some crazy fella bought.
24" is my big stumping bar
and I do make use of it occasionally. I run 14" bar on my 361

090 AV, 3120 both with what appear to be 60" bars.
sorry about the crappy phone pics.

Evidently they built the 090 there so it isn't the same as the one on ebay...although he did mention the ebay saw when I asked price
personally, I'd rather have the husky

A regular 090 is perfect with a 60" bar and will pull a 96" but it's rough. 42" is ok for really hard wood but otherwise it's way too small. I haven't been able to try my 72" or an 84" to see where the power starts to drop off and where a 090G would start to cut better than the regular non-G. Last year I had access to 8 and 10 foot stumps but not right now. Maybe someday again. It would be an informative experiment. I want to run a 797 and a 101B with a 60" against a 090 and see hos it goes as well. That will weed out the men saws from the boy saws.
I got to cut with a 090 for about an hr many years back...4' bar? thing about kilt me
@ OP
Oh, look: it's THAT saw again.
