Hmmm maybe. I also reported it to Stihl UK customer services. Got a nice email from them offering their thanks. Just waiting for the truck full of freebies as a token of their appreciation.....

 

Ha, good luck with that!

Sometime ago I reported someone who was selling convincing fake Husqvarna 365 Special, Stihl MS250 and Stihl MS380 chainsaws. He had sold several thousand pounds worth on ebay and was advertising on donedeal.ie also. I wrote an email to both Stihl and Husqvarna. I never heard anything from Stihl, whereas I got an email from the Head of Intellectual property for Husqvarna. However, the seller is still on ebay (haven't seen any counterfeit saws recently though). At least 3 or 4 people bought a 365 Special from him and to this day only one has realised it is a fake...

I keep getting broken in to, so could do with a few of these for them to take home and do some damage to themselves!
