Howdy,
We know that our pricing is really high on the OEM parts. Some OEM items we have a very competitive price because we are consistantly buying old inventories, and people going out of business inventories. In other cases we're priced high because we are buying from dealers at pretty much retail prices. The later wouldn't be a good business model if it were not for people in remote locations. These are mainly AK and HI customers. If you have to get on a boat or a plane to chase down your parts, our pricing plus shipping seems much more doable for them.
Regards
Gregg

I agree with this. Bailey's lets you choose the shipping method and is very reasonable. I've been quoted $35.00 shipping for $3.95 worth of parts from other places.

I was more questioning the fact you were selling stihl OEM parts online. So if you buy from a dealer you're then allowed to resell them online?
I'm not actually in the market for an 026 P&C, just browsing the site...

Those guys don't exist, it is an urban legend.....

I heard that they exhist, but I have never seen one. They're rumored to look like "a big fat hairy guy in drag," and speak in chineese english. Rumor also says its best to hide your 270's if you see one. Suposedly they have recently acquired a tase for them.....
