It makes the husky look like it's got a big butt.
I saw it on Ebay/Craigslist

It actually makes a lot of sense to sell a saw that way. The big bars and chains are expensive, but do not add much to the value of the saw on Ebay. I have 18 and 20" bars coming out out my wazoo, but I don't have enough big bars to outfit all my muscle saws. A good 32-36" bar and chain will get upwards of $100 on Ebay, yet it will not add that much to the power head when sold together.

I think Ambull hit the nail on the head. I just bought a Solo 680 with an 18 inch bar. The bar and chain were a nearly new Powermatch plus. He had the saw listed for $300, so a new big bar and chain would have been 1/3 of his asking price. I did use the small bar as a bargaining chip, though.
That auction is obviously a scam. They copied the description verbatim from another auction that ended three weeks ago that was actually for a 288.
Yep, including a nice bar and chain doesn't net anymore money. You basically end up throwing a bar and chain away and eating some shipping cost on top since ebay's shipping calculator doesn't allow for two packages.

I was not going to post this but now I have to with the current price. $202 for a Homelite 650/750 muffler and it still has 4+ days to go!!
Maybe I should "can" my 750 build and part it out......

Ouch! That's spendy. Looks like it's in exactly the same condition as the muffler on the saw I'm working on. I was quite happy when I discovered that the rattling muffler was only caused by loose bolts. Muffler itself was fine.

Wow. A year ago I paid like $175 for an NOS cylinder, and I thought that was expensive. Prices have sure gone up.

Not what I'd call a good deal (WTFDIK?), but it might be worth it to an Echo collector.

Saws and parts are only "worth" this kind of stupid money if knuckleheads are willing to pay it (and obviously they are, given the auction results). It's a vicious circle. Lately I've seen several parts (that were in my 'watch' list on feebay) get relisted at prices 50% or more higher than the previous listing. Same part. Same description. Same pics. Collector saws are going the way of baseball cards, muscle cars, old motorcycles, and everything else.....:msp_unsure:

That's the latest 'Parkerized' saw!
Yeah, and that story has been BSerized.
Oh boy......... Anyone notice the saw has a 610 clutch cover? There is no cutout for the decomp button. Wonder what other "Frankensaw" parts have been added?
EDIT:
Pretty sure that top cover is 610 also because the 650 came with a yellow cover.
