Resale value means nothing to the guys that buy these saws to work with.

I donno, when I made a living with one I sure enjoyed running them for 1/2 a season and being able to sell it for 2/3 of new and buy a new one. Kinda like a pickup. Once the Av started to loosen or i thought it wasn’t as strong as new. Sell it to a weekend warrior and Always got great feedback. I felt like I stayed in a new one cheap. But it sure makes me Leary of used ones in nice shape. You can keep one nice using a case and waxing it.
