I stopped by the Deere ag dealer today which of course is now a Stihl "dealer". They had the parts I needed and had a 500 with a 32" on the shelf. He claims he can get the arctic saws but I am betting he is fill of baloney

Just for laughs I asked what they had on the 500. He said $1700. I forgot to say is was a wrap handle also. I was actually surprised they had a wrap saw at all.

Apparently for the last company I worked for, someone special ordered a fullwrap for a Husky 572 and then decided not to buy it. I marked the price (OEM Husky - brand new) at $35.00, that is what the computer said. I tried to get with our pricing folks to see if that was accurate, they could not be bothered to respond. It sold within a day. Sometimes you can't second guess how stores operate...lol.

Msrp for a ms 500i r with 20” bar here is 1575$ and usually supposed to be 10$ extra for each bar size up to a certain point though lots of times that doesn’t get added unless more than one or two sizes up. Most people in my area hate wraps they want to stump low,not carry extra weight and will switch sides of tree or use top of bar if needed to fell.

He told me $1300 with a 20 inch.
He was shooting from the hip.
