should i sell my trusty MMed 530 echo chainsaw to get a new maryann 51v / dolmar 5105 clone?

or should i just keep the echo??

or just sell the echo and pocket the money for the important things in life like ammo and beer???
 
I've said this many times over the years: Echo stuff is great to use, easy to work on, but terrible to sell. Generally doesn't hold much value for resale. I say run it... unless a box of ammo and a 12 pack is just irresistible. I'd bet about the same holds true for those Maruyama saws. Solid tools, but pathetic resale value. Heck, they're cheap from the get go.
 
the thing is i am saw poor right now--

and i should have added another option-- build a 361 from a kit--lol
 
Do my math, I'm now +1 on saws. Building is for those that never had a stroke and now have hand tremors.
 
looks like this is a self-solving problem -- amazons $319 v51 is now $500!!!

looks like the deals on those are OVER--

at $500 the 530 echo is looking awful sweet!!--LOL
 
I knew I should have grabbed one of those while they were cheap! Dannnggg
