I didn't really expect him to accept it and I hate gambling on eBay, its a crap shoot as to whether you are dealing with someone who is knowledgeable and honest. The evidence led me to believe that he is probably as close to beyond reproach as any on eBay!
If it actually runs as described owe this gentleman a big thank you, because it really made it possible for me to be able to own something that they I really wanted/needed.
I could feel bad for not paying enough after doing the math.
If you figure that it was shipped in 2 packages 5lbs. for the bar and 25lbs for the PH from NH to Ar. What would that cost $40or? And the used 28" Cannon bar and chain what's that word? $35-40 bucks? Mathematically doesn't leave much for PH...


You ain't seen the UPS truck yet, have ya.
He knows when I got something coming and always takes a long lunch and will swear his phones on mute...


Hooray, 9010...:ARMS1: :aplastao::aaaaa:

Please have it swing in though GR Mi for some test cuts first.
Congrats, I didn't see it was a cannon bar :).

I think someone who doesn't know or doesn't pay attention may be a bit upset when they buy this one and then realize it had two different style caps.

Bargain, I'd sell mine for that, all oe, never had any work done to it per the previous owner, and I've touched nothing.
And it comes with a little more paint on the bottom:applaudit:.

UPS guy must be following this thread because he called right after I posted that he's a sorry dog (actually purdy fair feller) and he called my wife's phone and allowed he'd be there in a minute, drove out to hwy. to keep him from bouncing down our gravel road.

Waiting patiently

Still waiting...

And finally,

IMG_20180307_145307.jpg

Popped on second pull, fired on third. Ran great, 4stroked and cleaned up in the cut just right. Need to order a couple rubber pieces, fuel line starting to look iffy and one of the rubber antivibes has a crack and I need a new wrap for it and new plastics and, and....

Better start a list!
Sorry @chipper1 but it was a little too late to reroute UPS with it for your approval testing, will try to schedule a delivery in the near future...

You got me LOL.
Glad you got it. If I needed a big saw/milling saw I wouldn't hesitate to grab one up.

There are plenty of guys looking for them if you need to sell one, don't see many come up for sale, at least I don't.
Looks like the gtg in iowa would be a pretty good meeting ground, found your place on the map lol.

I'm about 2hrs north of there, closer to Branson, in Proctology Arkansas.
You should swing by for the Hedgefest, all your favorite inmates will be there...
You are correct about not seeing these often, sorta freaked me out when AJ listed a nice clean one yesterday. You wouldn't believe all the excuses I ran through my head trying to justify 2! Actually I figure you this is a test case to see if I need a new one from across the pond as much as I think I do!
I may need rehab after all...

That's funny, are you really that far north of there.
I may make it to iowa, but probably not gonna be hanging with your peeps in Misery, but be sure to say hi to mine as I know many of them will be out there.
We have another one out here I've already committed to so I'll probably only be able to do those two this spring, maybe something in the summer or fall depending on what I do for work this summer.
I know I saw that one and was like oh boy, and the 665 as well, lots of deals for a few weeks, then taxes will be back and much of the low hanging fruit will be gone.
You may need one, just never know; and the rehab, most likely too :p.

Up in the mountains from here -- 2+ hours from here. Someone should have went full circle and gotten a MS440 crankcase :bash::bash:
