So I see a response about a tractor or farming/gardening almost everyday on this site (ok I'm exaggerating some) but there should be a "Farm and Garden" section on here. I think it would be pretty neat thread with off the wall subjects I'm sure. I have a bad problem of buying chainsaws and mowers or anything with wheels and/or a motor lol. Would be nice to see what kind of deals people come across or maybe a "bartering" section on here. I got a killer deal on a Husqvarna 55 (1998 model) for $30. The guy had the Husqvarna and 2 poulans for $60, said the poulans would fire on ether but no info on the Husqvarna. I told him I didn't want the poulans and just want the Husqvarna. He wanted $25 but I gave him 30 since he met me halfway on my lunch break. I get the saw and it has great compression. I put good gas mix in it and tried starting... no luck. After a dozen pulls I knew it wasn't gonna start but I did smell fuel so it seems to getting fuel. I hold the wire on the spark plug and pull the cord and nothing, no shock or spark. So I got a new coil on order for a whopping $12.50 with a new spark plug. Should be here Friday so I can't wait! I'm hoping once I get it running that I'll have less than $50 in a decent saw. It's got a 18" bar with a sharp chain but I think I'm gonna put a 20" bar with a full chisel and use as a felling saw. Currently I use a Stihl ms250 which has never let me down and has plenty of power for what I cut. It's got a muffler mod so it makes a dash more power. Ok enough talking about my deal.....
WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR GOOD DEALS??
