Wow thats amazing I saw his location and wondered about the guy since he's only about 15 min from me. I was actually thinking about getting the 660 crankcase at one time... I wonder who he is now... Hmmm Orville you say. I will have to keep an eye out. Sorry to hear about you getting ripped off Brad. You are one of the best guys on here... Honestly I don't know why the guy just doesn't describe them fairly. Seems like junk saws go for the same as nice ones on ebay

You not i may be a bit new here and all , but it seems thier is more bashing ebay sellers than most sites ive visited.
now im not sure if we are talking aboutr a brand new chainsaw or a older used one.
Maby in this case the seller did try to rip the buyer off , by giving faulty description.
but in alot off the cases where buyers pissed at the seller , being seller did describe what he thought was best , yet most of you guys probly take them apart, and alot of the sellers that sell used , do not , i for one have never fully taken apart a chainsaw. So you can not expect brand new! If its a used saw , thier is a chance that lots of things are worn out, and its not always the sellers fault, as he/she may not be aware of it.
So yah you can open a dispute against the seller, in fact you can call him and threaten him on the phone even if you are happy with it , and state i want my $ back or i leave negitive , or you can file item not as described and get 100% funds back, as the buyer can also be a crook! trust me i had it happen.
As Far as for Shipping Go`s at least in Canada , Shipping Paid by Seller , Collected from Ebay for shipping from Buyer , is Not Refundable. The seller takes your Funds that you paid for shipping and takes it to the shipper / post office and ships it off.
If buyer files or demands 100% back including shipping , the seller is no out X number of $dollors , plus the loss of the item.
Now tell me How fair This is?
You gota No if the Seller Was trying to be a Crook or not.
In all Listings i Do i Insure them for the Value of the Item , I cant Insure for the Shipping , As In my Case i Ship Canada Post , and They wont Refund Shipping , Even for Damged Goods.
Now as a Seller and yah thats all i am pritty much on ebay , i try to be as honest as i can , All Ebay sales is basicly a trust fund bettween buyer and seller , I know that your trusting people that you do not know, Well it works booth ways.
Ebay had Made some Bad Jugment Calls When they Removed the Sellers Ability to Leave a Negitive Feedback , as thier are Bad Buyers out thier as well.
Seince the Ebay Changes , Sales Are down Drasticly For canadian Sellers.
Ebay madeSome New Changes in the Last 2 weeks , and Im afraid i also will be Quitting Ebay if things dont pick up , as the Final Value Fee`s rose by more that 10% for us so called canadians , so now the only $ to be made is ebay and paypal site.
So please Keep in Mind that Not all Sellers are Bad, And look and Read The sellers Feedbacks , it should Give you Some Kinda idea what the seller is Like.
Also if you are very Concerned Person and want to Directly Speak to the seller Before Making a bid or a Purchase , Just use the Ask seller a Question Form , and Ask him for a phone number that you can talk to him. Or leave him a Number to call.
If they Wont do it , or you get no Replyies , than Odds are He / she Not a good Seller, thier for I wouldent buy from them.
In all cases myself will give out the phone number , useuly when asked.
If i can not find it and i bought a item from ebay or sold a item i will go here "search and find contact info " :
http://shop.ebay.com/ebayadvsearch/__W0QQ_advZ1QQ_ipgZ50QQ_sofindtypeZ9?_rdc=1
than ebay will send the details to your email , and u can than call your party.
If the phone number is invaled than report it to ebay.
Thats my 2 cents worth for what its worth.

I just talked to my dealer and I cannot order that PN. It shows as not a valid number and is not even in the price book. Any chance one of you guys could order me one and I pay you for it? PM me if you can help me out.
I'm going to my dealer today or Saturday, ill see if they can find it.

there is nothing new under the sun...........
I have been marketing for 30 plus years and the bad have always been there and the good have always been here.
ebay is simply a marketing tool. the fees are all upfront. they tell you what they are going to charge just as
paypal does. they get their cut. nothing new here.
I have spent many thousands over the years advertising cars ,trucks, classic cars, motorcycles, heavy equipment, antiques and much, much more.
in the 70's we had the nickel papers and they were cheaper than local newspapers so thats were we advertized our merchandise.
later auto tradder came and gave us a broader market. When I lived in LA and was selling high dollar classic cars I would use the LA times because that paper went overseas and brought foreign buyers in. those ads were big money. average over 100 bucks and up.
The bottom line is results and cost. Ebay produces results on a worldwide scale.
ebay is simply a tool. a tool is only as good as its user.
you know the drill, when you hear the term, "USED CAR SALESMAN", you think of a car that the wheels are ready to fall off of.
same with saws too
pretty on the outside but cost you more to fix than buying a new saw.
"has great compression" = pulls over hard because cylinder is scored

i was just trying to help..
and my internet connection is also very slow , only can get dialup internet here and only connects as 19200bps
I, for one, appreciates anybody trying to help. These threads are getting so long that if you're not careful, you'll forget the subject. I've noticed some on this site and others are kinda snippy about some of the posts and I've noticed some that are downright rude. I'd like to keep some of my favorite sites friendly, if possible.
The 066 lives again! It's completed except for the model tag. I'm still looking for one if anyone can help me out.
This vid is the third time to start it. I've not even tuned the high end yet. I'll do that after I get it in some wood tomorrow. I'm just giving it a few heat cycles and getting the L and LA set. It'll be a few more minutes before the video finished processing.

Oh man! Full wrap and full comp too! Nice looking saw bud! I know the inside is probably just as pretty. :yourock:
Projects like this aren't cheap I've got $260 in parts, not counting both crank bearings and the piston. I already had the bearings. So not counting the bearings and piston, I've still got $625 in it.
It has new crank bearings, piston, rings, crank seals, all gaskets, Elastostart, muffler cover, clutch springs, rim sprocket, fuel and oil caps, and fuel filter. I replaced all the incorrect bolts too. Plus it's ported on top of all that.
