You've had 6 problem transactions out of 20 :monkey:

Yes but I've had problems only as a buyer. My ratio of problem transactions as "buyer only" is actually worse!

3 non-receipt
1 "complete saw" shipped powerhead-only (and the box said "PH' so they must have known)
1 "new bar" that was missing paint and had a sprocket full of sawdust
1 "factory refurbished" 455 that was a total piece of %$#!
 
Why are you selling the 285CD for $75? Is it in good shape? I've got one and love it with a 28" bar.

It has a bad topend and needs all new rubber throughout. It will make an excellent part saw. Surprisingly it showed 160 lbs of compression. Once I got it apart, different story. Looks like the piston skirt broke once and messed up the cylinder below the transfers. No scratches above the ports, which is why it showed good comp.:mad:

Sorry to hear that as I really like mine.
