I guess he is still doing "business" as we had a PM discussion in upgrading my Dolmar 6400 to a 7910 on AS just last month.

I checked, this conversation was in late July and his account seems to be gone at AS now. He quoted me $325, was that a fairly normal price?

I get 325.00 on most saws with return FedEx shipping included. On saws that need a coil swap I get 40.00 - 80.00 extra.

Bigger saws are 350.00 because of added shipping. New MS880s need about 300.00 worth of extra parts to run like I want em too. 3120XPs are more because I swap the coils out, and add a HS jet to the carb.

So.......yeah. His price is in line.

This is normal right? Or should I put JMSSAWS stickers all over it? It's not his work just felt fitting for what's been going on lately.

Another piece of the puzzle came in the mail today. New piston for the 066.
The piston is courtesy of Dave @Definitive Dave , and has been ground on by no other than Shaun @srcarr52
A huge thanks to both of you! You are both nothing but class acts!

I hope this whole SAWGATE thing doesn't hurt the reputable saw builders. I know I was contemplating getting some work done, but then all this came to light and it has slowed my ambitions to send my stuff out to someone I really don't know and trust it comes back better than before, or at all.

Check out the builder reviews here on the site. Plenty of reputable builders here.
