I cant use it and my son has no use for it. It would be somewhat valuable still?

On that subject if I'm not mistaken John Lambert (RIP )sold the very last 090 out of Canada .I think Larry Stiener bought it .I saw it maybe 15 years ago and it had never even had fuel in the tank .John had made a deal with a local Stihl dealer then sold them on the internet for a slight profit .He sold a bunch of them,all sizes causing a lot of complaints from other Stihl dealers .Reading between the lines they were just peeved because they didn't think of it themselves .

eBay has a few listed between $1,600 - $4,000. How real those numbers are, I am not sure, but there are still those who want them, both to use or hang on the wall.

John was a helluva man. I became associated with him when I started on eBay in 1999. He sold a pile of new Stihl 090AV and Stihl 088 saws. I have no idea how he was able to ship them to the USA as cheap as he was but his shipping was $50 per saw and that included a 36 inch bar. The price of the 088 with a 36 inch was $999 plus $50. The price of the 090AV with a 36 inch was $1249 plus $50. Sadly he admitted later the well ran dry and he never even kept one for himself. He went by "sunlover" on eBay and "GypoLogger " on AS. He is the man that encouraged me to join AS in 2002. He was from the far white north and was known for posting pics of himself buck naked in the cold. I remember one shot taken from the rear where he was bucking logs bare ass naked in the snow. There was another where he was naked making "snow-angles" He used to talk about his "saw wench" which I believe (not sure) was his girlfriend. He is missed by many.

I’m going to suggest you value it at about $2200. It looks to be in better shape than most and I think if someone’s got to have it they won’t object to the price. As said before they appear priced as high as $3600 but those saws just sit, never sell at that price. GLWS!
