Ive had to show my 39 when buying 200t's at our local shop

 

The salesguys there are screwed on though:thumbup1:

my mate is a roofer and he uses one for cutting lats. he got it off fleabay, no tickets.

Most, NOT all dealers will sell to anyone, as they know the punter will go else where and they will have lost a sale. Not many dealers police it

Ours is particularly stringent, i've been buying kit from them for years, and they knew i was ticketed but they still asked for evidence of it.

 

How it should be IMO

[Hairyloon]

How many people have been asked for their tickets?

My first saw was from my local shop, they asked if I'd got one, but didn't need to see it. My most recent was mail order and they asked me to fax a copy of it.

I forget about the saws in between.

Mail order? Stihl?

It was a Stihl, but not direct from Stihl.

I forget who it was, but I was well impressed with the service: they'd got a special offer, a 16" 020 with some bonus kit at a reasonable enough price that I'd put up with the extra 2" (or change it later)... they phoned quite late in the afternoon to apologise that they'd run out of 16", and would a 14" do, and it still arrived at a reasonable time the following morning.

If they are caught selling mail order by Stihl, they will lose their dealership!
