Want to Sell Nice Jonsered 2159 (Similar to Husqvarna 359)

[Brushwacker]

Would like to thin the herd. To much saw sitting here.
This should make some one a fine work saw as it is no slouch and has the umph for the 20" bar. Can cut some good sized wood up with out a struggle on the saw. The pictures speak for its condition. It starts, runs, and idles fine . Hasn't failed me yet. $295 + shipping. Not to far from 1/2 the price of new, not near that in wear and tear.

That will make someone a nice rig. Russ

Prefer to sell this cash but I might consider an even or partial trade for a Stihl 026-260,034-360,ms192,200-201.

$265 or should I save it for ebay ? Would make someone an inexpensive all round saw.

I just checked eBay and that's a bit higher than any recent sales I could find, though the 359's routinely sell for more. Amazing what branding can do. I had a 359 not long ago, and liked it a lot.

On eBay you deal with someone you don't have a clue about. Bushwhacker is a respected member of the community here and 265$ is a damn good deal.
If I didn't have a 359 arriving on my door step from Tbone today I would beg my wife to let me buy this saw. The red ones look better on this model.
I for one am tired of newbs lowballing and stomping on sales threads! It is a privilege to be able to come on here and purchase a saw at a fair price from someone with a reputation built from numerous posts and years of membership.
I have guns for sale in the local swap guide and if I move one I am buying this ****ing saw. It will be my fourth 60cc and I don't care.
Hold out for a bit here Bushwhacker, that is a good deal! I am steaming right now! Russ

I like to get as much out of my saws as I can, so I ask high prices, and I understand a few remarks but I agree with Bluefish on this one, this is already a very fair price, and I'm trying to trade my nice 026 or 036 for it

Damn right Justin. Match the ports front and rear, open up the muffler and you have a hungry woodgetter in your hands. Just the non epa muff from baileys makes this perk up. Oh, I fixed your quote. Russ

 

[fin460]

Is there a jonsered 357? if so what number is it?

 

[Bluefish]

2156. Cool saw. Russ

 

[Bluefish]

Somebody buy this saw!!!!! Russ

 

[Jon1270]

Oh, I'm not saying it's not a fair price. He explicitly asked whether he should send it to eBay. It looks to me like that's probably not a good option for him.

 

[dbittle]

I have a work buddy I will show this to when he gets back in the office in a couple of days. He is in the market for a larger saw than he has at the moment. I think there is a good chance he will buy it if it is still available then.

It seems like saw prices always dwindle some on ebay, late summer. People are recouping from their summer vacations, needing money for schooling, paying their higher power bills due to the heat and not thinking hard about cutting wood. Its like sellling lawn mowers during the middle of winter almost.
About the middle of Sept on, saw sales will go better. I can wait if I need to. I haven't been using all my saws enough to keep the gas fresh in them so if I could sell, that will mean less of the saw sitting care and make room for my projects as I complete them.
I have a McCulloch PM 700, 2) 610's I think need little more then cleaned and fine tuned to make big chips. I could part with 1 of my 034's for the same as the 2159.
Thanks all for the support to get this sold...

I guess this saw isn't for you then. I never base pricing on eBay history. eBay is unrealistic on MOST prices.

 

[Rusty Barlow]

These large or small mount and is it .325 or .375?
I hear you on this being a tough time of year to sell saws. It's my least favorite to cut too when its 90* and 90% humidity.

 

[RiverLogger]

Small mount for sure. I'll let the OP answer on the pitch but most likely 3/8(.375)

Small mount 3/8 .050 gauge is correct.

This shouldn't get buried. Nice solid saw for big box **** price. Be an eye opener for someone toiling with a Blowes special. Russ
