Actually the mint condition saws are not my favorites, because I like to run all my saws. I feel guilty running a saw that is perfect. Since I don't own a museum, I don't have much use for mint condition non-running saws. This second one interests me more, as it has a bit of light use already.


Bid it up please ! I'd love to try that Solo out next fall. :rock:

If we were smart, those of us bidding would put our heads together and not bid each other up. I have a snipe set on it already. But, there's no point in running it up, if one of you already has a $3000 bid on it. I'm also leary of telling where I'm at, enabling you to easily just go one increment higher. Surely we're all honest enough here to get together in a PM and let the guy with the highest bid have it for something less than if we all bid each other up. If you're bidding and trust me enough to PM me your bid, I'll tell you where I'm at. If you're higher, and are 100% sure you will be bidding that amount, I'll back my snipe out.

Brad, at first I thought you might be kidding, but now I'm not so sure.

You have been very helpful on the site, and likely no mean spirit is intended here, but, this sure doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

I would like to encourage you not to do it.

Oh boy, looks like I've opened up a can of worms here. What's new, lol.

So what's wrong with a bidding agreement amongst friends? IIRC, you Poulan guys do similiar all the time. It's no different than you and I, Mike, knowingly bidding up a 8500. "Hey, let me see how much I can make you pay for that saw."

If I ever own one, it WILL BE RUN. I don't care if I'm the first to ever take it out of the box. That's what intriques me about this saw, is it's special sound. I round a sand dune drag racing Yamaha Banshee for years and it's simply music to my ears.
