Saw Purchase:)

[Kay 9]

I am going home from the UK soon and am thinking of getting a new saw here as they seem to be considerably cheaper than in Ireland. Have the 550xp in my head or the Stihl ms261. Should I purchase here and save some money and thoughts on both would be great Thanks all. The huskie is £532.49 compared to 860.00 euro at home. The stihl is £490.50 compared to god knows what. Pros and cons of both would be great. Reliability is number 1. Had stihls before and can't complain but would like to try a huskie for a change maybe.

Thanks for prompt replies folks. Yeah kind of swinging towards Huskie anyway Geoff:) Was thinking of Fr Jones Johnny. Didn't know there was dealers on here mate. Details and prices be great. I'm leaving Thursday so not much time left.

Didn't know of them and have family there also. Just thought I'd get it here before I go home and save the trip. What's the best prices people have got here on either saw I wonder. Do these new auto tunes give much trouble compared to the tried and tested carb.

Thanks. I'm from Galway and thought I'd pick one up here in London or somewhere near before I hit off on Thursday. I'm working up until Wednesday so have only couple days left. Might give it to the old man as a gift:D
