I think this fits. I walked into Ace to find a few nuts and bolts. Walked out with those and a 500i R with a 32" lite bar. Couldn't believe it when I saw it sitting there. My dealer was PISSED at his rep. Posting pics as I hadn't been able to find any.

What would the dealer be pissed? Im confused at how this is a "you suck"

Is Ace Hardware a store that you would expect to find 1 of 5 (initial shipment to WA was 5 R models) of the more desirable new pro saws? Or would you expect that a dealer that has been open for over 30 years catering to arborists/forest industry to have them. Additionally he was pissed because he was supposed to get one of the those 5 saws. This shop has a wait list 30 people long for 500i Rs...

I hope you used all the little black 5$ discount cards you had.
 
I’m not familiar with those. But the did give a military discount. Was out the door for $1462 with a 32” light bar and 6 pack of 2 stroke oil.

I had a pretty good week. Picked up 6 saws from another local Chainsaw fanatic.

Two 031s, an 028 Super, Homelite Super 2 two trigger and two ms192tcs.

I fixed the pull cord on the super 2 and after a few pulls it fired to life and runs. Needs work, but I will get to it one day.

Also took both 192s did a bunch of cleaning and mixing and matching and made 1 good one. It turned out better than I expected.

And then yesterday picked up these two classics.

Haven't messed with the 009, but decided to put some fresh gas in the 011 and it fired right up and runs great. Not a bad few days.
 
Found a great yardsale yesterday. Picked up 8 saws, a Solo Brushcutter, about 20 chainsaw chains, 5 extra bars, a few cases, shop towels, mitivac, and other things, all for $102. A few of the saws are cheapy Craftsman, one is a Blue Max (it does run good though) 3 Homelite Super 2s, two of which have dual triggers, a Homelite 150, a Stihl 039, and a Pioneer Farmsaw. I have never held a Pioneer saw, hopefully its worth putting some money in to. It looks like a nice saw.

And here is my floor that was clean just a couple days ago. By the way, are those old Homelite cases worth anything, I believe it goes with the 150. I picked it up because I have never seen one before.

I also picked up that McColluch backpack blower and a Husqvarna 235 the day before. I haven't messed with the backpack blower, but the 235 just needed a fuel line and carb cleaning, and now it runs great paid $20 for the pair.

Online Auction Pro Mac 850 65$ with a Wild Thing said it needs work. I tested compression at 170 and has spark added fuel and it started. Biggest saw I have now.

The Eager Beaver bar on that saw is hilarious!
That should be a stout one. Looking for one myself. Good deal.
 
Sweet deal on the 850!!!!
I'd like to find one similar, or a pm800 or sp80,81
