I saw a saw for sale on facebook, silly cheap.. I messaged and asked why so cheap. They said it was a loss leader to promote their business. I asked could i buy it and they said Yes!! and helpfully told me where to send the money and that as soon as they got it they would send the saw round...

 

Great i said, do you want my address??? yes they said, so i sent them the address of the local police headquarters..

 

Never heard from them again, funny that..

 

john..

Dont. Its very strange. Looks like a scam. Face book become a tipping site, we even  remove our ad from it, as we never got any real job from it, only some strange people was calling, with some silly things not even worth discussing.

I dont think there are any fake 500is about. fakers dont have the technology for the fuel injection i wouldnt think. Just email stihl the serial number and they'll tell you its origin.

Maybe they just haven't got round to it yet - fake ones probably won't be fuel injected, people that buy fakes either don't know or don't care.

Probably. I just hope that someone buying a 500i that has no choke wonders why there’s has a choke 😂
