1. Not for the first time.

 

3. Were they Stihl from an authorised dealer who they had never dealt with before?

[Grass hopper]

Yes , but only got bars and chains. That's as far as I'm going.

I think in theory the restrictions apply to all stihl products: saws, chain, bars etc but also key rings, wallets T-shirts....

Think it is (or should be) up to the dealer to apply some discretion.

I think it's quite right

In theory a stihl/husky dealer should do a proper "handover" to explain the (safety) features of the saw. If the purchaser can produce saw tickets there is no need for this.

This is why they can only send out saws (or theoretically any stihl products) to either people with tickets or people they've "handed over" saws to before as it proves (on paper) they know what they're doing.

.

 

Lets see if Justin will be able to find his 'puter in the mist and clarify.

 

This sounds about right.

trouble with the local dealer bit in ireland is that their prices are allways well steep, even with courier costs its often hundereds cheaper to get saws sent from the uk, a ms 201t is 1000 euro at a local dealer near me!

it seems that if you are an existing customer that dealers in the uk will send saws to the republic.

funny theres no restrictions on climbing equipment as if you didnt know how to use it iam sure you could do just as much damage to youself as with a saw.

This sounds about right.

 

Thanks.

I've left the suitcase if unmarked notes in the agreed place

[WorcsWuss]

This sounds about right.

 

So with all my CS groundsaw tickets, could I order a top handle from you Justin...?
