The seller's sad story of being broke sure matches his user name "onthebeachinhawaii"..:monkey:

Haaa,,,I hadn't noticed that. Could be a few things.

Either he's broke from trying to pay for his house on the beach in Maui,,,,or he's barefoot and bumming on the beach with nothing but a surfboard and his stihl 090!
 
MS460 with 20" skip chains and oversized piston and rings.
Nobody would bore out a 460 cylinder, would they?

Pretty beat looking isn't it. Why would it be a 1108? Isn't that the 08, 08s and S10?

actually I think it is pretty nice condition.

It is a rare saw and the bonnet looks good other than paint missing.
The original paint was not like todays paint and durable.

The lightning script and no dents are the key to condition.

the starter does not appear to be broken either as many are.

It is an 1106. 1108 is for the 08 saw
 
$107??? Where did he come up with that number? "My wife says I'm too old..." now that's funny right there



Poulan chain saw 16" gas and case new - $107 (Reading)

Yeah I'd seen that one. I'll be blown away if it sells. The funny thing is that the selling prices on 090s has been going down recently as the market is flooded because of a couple high sales back a few months ago. As Ric pointed out Brad's fully cleaned and rebuilt only sold for a grand.
 
There was an add on CL down here a guy selling a bunch of 090's at stinkys corner at 11 am today.. For super cheap. I had to work so I couldn't check it out but I bet that guy came down and picked them up earlier today. I wish he would have left a number or a way to contact him via email... Was up for a few days but no way to contact him..
