Your dealer is full of fecal matter.
Thats what I told my dealer when he said I'd burn up my MS440 if I went from a 7t to an 8t rim.

They're missing out - my dealer keeps used saws and parts, and when they get caught up in the service department, they make rebuilt saws out of the parts saws, and then sell them in the store or on eBay. They also strip saws and resell the parts on eBay from time to time.
Some used stuff is junk, obviously, but a lot of it is cash waiting to be made.
The real value here really is in the used parts. We sell them for half the cost of new, so it's a win-win for both us and the customers. We make more money on a dead saw than a new one.
I like building saws from the junkers for myself, but business wise, it's far less profitable than selling the parts. Plus, it's tough to really warranty any of these creations so I stay away from selling them.
