All my saws im going to get off the net from now on, I currently spend over $5000 a year on saws and I can do without the warrentys, first tune up (got a tach coming from baileys) and paying double the online cost.

now thats just sad, $1500 for a MS200! ???? id like to sell some for that much.

Import them to Australia and sell them for that price using their money and you might even make enough to buy a hamburger after.

1500 nz dollars is just over $1000 US dollars with the current exchange rate. Thats a big hamburger.

Will that also eliminate (100%) import tariffs?
