That's Ric Stewart's shop. I think they are legit. I picked up a Partner R440 from him. Sweet saw. He is good to deal with, and ships stuff out quickly.

Yep. Ric is one of the best in the biz.

It only needs a oil change and it's ready to go.

If it were mine I'd go ahead and grease it and rotate the tires....

Yep, that would be my workbench. It's not much, but it gets the job done.

I thought the same thing. I will be keeping a eye on the auction but I suspect it will go beyond what I can afford.

If it were mine I'd go ahead and grease it and rotate the tires....

Just all part of good maintenance practices. Should also inspect the muffler bearing, fill the blinker fluid and change out the firewall gasket. :msp_rolleyes:

In all honesty though doesn't that saw have a "wet" gear box for the chain drive? Maybe it does need the oil changed......

I don't want to get your hopes up to high but I have only personally seen two of these saws sale on Ebay in the last 2-3 years. The last one was sold by a member here for some major money, I will not say how much but the buyer said his max bid was much higher than what he won it for.

EDIT:
I went digging and found a old thread with pictures of the twin that sold, it was not in as bad shape as I remember.

The crafty is local for me but even at 30 dollars start it aint worth the drive.

Do you need one like that?

Thanks Ric, but I don't need any of those little Craftsman saws. Looks to be a rebadged Poulan Micro and I have a few of those already in various flavors. It looked to be very clean and the outrageous shipping caught my eye.

LOLOLOLOLing like a Mutha!!!

I almost posted something similar yesterday, but then I remembered Randy wears a size 10..............I know, I know his feet look bigger in those videos, but that is a matter of relativity. His feet look big relative to his skinny a** legs...........:msp_biggrin:

Yah, one does not normally associate a rare Solo twin with an eBay name of 'toodlepoodle!'

I messaged the Seller yesterday to see if there was a mistake on the shipping charges:

Dear romeostudio09,

Why are the shipping charges so high? $120.00 to ship from WA to CA, really?


And here is the response:

the box is huge that covers the case, so shipping is very pricey. But if im shipping to CA i could ship it for $100


- romeostudio09


Uh yeah, no thanks

A little earlier today I sent a similar question to the seller, I'm looking forward to reading the response.
