2101xp/ top all time muscle saws!!!!!!!!!!!

[RVALUE]

That's a real bummer Brad. I sure hope they find it. It kills me what a guy has to pay for shipping these day's. And you have to insure it, to me that's ridiculous, because you are paying for the service to begin with. That's like promising a tree job, and asking the customer if they want to pay extra for insurance, incase the job goes south. Cant even believe it's legal. Figured your'e saw would sell quick hope they find it. Rvalue are you looking for another?

I agree wholeheartedly. There is one more example of loss of accountability.

I recently explained my take on a purchase / ship agreement: The purchase price is backing a guarantee by the seller that the saw was what was represented, or better.

The seller agreed to 'ship and handle' the saw for an additional fee. This is a guarantee to deliver the saw, to the address. The insurance SHOULD be included, and should be the value of a NEW saw. Therefore if it went south, there is not the issue of what quality of 'nearly new' means to another person.

This is a case of higher logic. It is above the understanding of most people. And probably alludes ebay,etc. as well.

For the 'shipper' failing to properly cover this is indeed a gamble.

Actually no. I was trying to point out the danger of under insuring something. It's hard for me to believe that the saw PLUS (was it modified?) was valued at $ 450. So if it is indeed lost or damaged, can it be replaced for that amount? (They would probably ding you again for the postage. )

And lastly, in this probable scenario, ones time becomes valueless.

If you want one of those things, that particular one would be a good 'un to get. The case and the bar/chains sure look nice. Is this what you'd call a "moped" saw???:jester:

By a "moped" saw I'll assume you are referring to the question of "what do fat girls, and mopeds have in common"? "They're both fun to ride, but you don't want your friends to see you on either one"..................LOL!!!!
Yeah it looks pretty clean for the "Edsel" of saws..............:msp_rolleyes:

 

[Jon1212]

Neil sound's like a great show, and event!! How's things Jon? Glad to hear from ya! Aaron see ya tomorrow. Stumpy that's good stuff, awesome saw man! sent YOU A rep.

Things are going pretty good, I have six more weeks on the infernal crutches, but my ankle is healing well. My wife, and I decided since I'm laid up we'd order our Thanksgiving dinner.......which I'm hoping translates to more energy for her..........:msp_wink:
I hope you have yourself a great Holiday, and thanks again for this thread, it's pretty awesome.........even if Brad pops in from time to time, it's still cool................:msp_biggrin:

Rvalue, good stuff, and I sure hope they find that saw, what a waste. Jon you don't have to thank me, after all I did not realize this thread would be such a big hit. Thanks to you guy's we have a place where we are all friend's, and no fight's. We can talk about any brand size, shape model, color saw. Hell any topic! Glad Aaron is sitting in more again

There is a Poulan6000, 100cc full wrap, say's 43in bar. In rohnert park Ca. Craigslist look's great 200 buck's. Not far from me, and Aaron.

I need a husky 60 inch bar.

WTF???

I did a "Poulan" search yesterday and didn't find that listing. BRB....

HOLY CRAP I just found it now. It's about 15 minutes from me. Looks like he listed it after my search. DAMMIT I need to scratch up 2 Franklins ASAP. Hmm.................

I was thinking the same thing.

Any word, just got in here. Lee sent me a pm early today, I emailed the guy, to grab it for him. Hope it's ok with you fella's if it work's. I heard from him first. But if you guy's already beat us to the punch don't want to step on a friend's toes.

I have a 48 now. Once a year, it is a few inches short, on a medium drop. 60 would do the job.

But need? No.

Want? Yes

Afford? No

Justify? :monkey:

Would you believe that UPS has lost my 2101XP? This is my first time to have this trouble. They put a trace on it for me this evening. It usually only takes 4-5 days, but can take up to 8 days. If it's not found by then, they file a claim. Fortunately, I insured it for $450. What a bummer, not only for me, but for the new owner as well

First time with UPS... ?

What became of that situation?

 

[RVALUE]

My bent 36 inch bar (USPS) , I just bent it back straiter. I felt it wasn't worth the hassel of the argument, and then " .....it wasn't properly packaged".


But lost is a different animal.

It ain't lost, I bet someones out cutting wood with it.

USPS lost a Homelite C5. It was going from Ma. to NJ.
I could have driven there in 6 hrs. Had a tracking number
as well. But no go. It was gone.

IF the 2100 can match / beat the 3120, THEN that would imply that design can trump size.

Interesting thoughts.

Besides actually cutting wood, is there a measure of a saws performance?

Maybe I need to build one. It could be as simple as a water pump hooked to a double sprocket couldn't it?

Maybe use a hydraulic pump to pump water.

 

[NORMZILLA44]

Rvalue, I know the feeling. We have got into real big stuff, have a 48in canon. It's helped us out a few time's. Wanted a 60 for the hell of it, look good on the wall anyway LOL! Afford yeah ouch, because for that long, canon is my choice. And Ca-ching!! As for lost anything being shipped, how can that be leagl when you pay? How the hell do they not even have to explain, just whoop's? wtf? iNSURANCE OR NOT i WOULD FLIP OUT. Not everything can be replaced.
