  1. I know ebay can be a strange place but i have been toying with the idea of replacing one of my 26's with a newer ms260 as there getting on a bit. Anyway as most of us do i trawled tbay and came up with a few newer ones and found this, Im going to get a new one from Jonsie instead but what people will pay on here is madness, this used saw is the same price as a brand new one from Justin and it's still got a day to run!!!!!! stihl ms260 chainsaw 2010 model new on eBay (end time 28-Nov-10 16:51:00 GMT)
  2. Im with Huck on this one, it wouldnt do for me. why not just hire it when you need it and let someone else have the hassle or servicing, break downd etc.
  3. Put tow bar winch into tbay and 2 come up, is that what your looking for?
  4. Looking for one myself Jonny, if i find anything i will let you know.
  5. Valid points mate and it sounds about right to be fair.
  6. Bad news mate and i feel for your gaffer. We NEVER leave any tools in the van locked or not when were workin, the first job we do is transport all the tools to the work place, even if were not using some till the afternoon, a pain yes but there are eyes everywhere.
  7. But the 880 must sell in even smaller numbrs and my 880 has the new caps. Also what the big thing against the new 661, are we all afraid of moving on?
  8. I keep wondering that, im in the market for a new 66 as my old girl is getting on a bit but im going to wait till they change the caps.
  9. Me too Pete, i was going to say that but you beat me too it!!!!!
  10. So what was the case of Viagra i got you last criggy then!!!!!
  11. Be v warey, i had this a few months back with a log splitter, sold it on ebay with a buy it now, then a few days later gets ba call from a polish guy. "His mates are coming to pick it up" he says, sure enough they turn up 3 days late with a trailer, wont pay me before they have "tried" it on the trailer to see if it fits so i say no, then they say the trailer is too small and they will call back with a bigger one! there was 3 well built guys and my guess was that there were going to get it loaded then leg it without paying. i sold it again and had no problem. Mine woulnt pay by pay pal though so if he will then let him, you still have the goods so its not to bad but be careful.
  12. A rich sauce with red wine goes v well with the old pigeon mate also dont over cook it or it goes v dry.
  13. Are you the miserable looking one Jon? you look like yo have lost a pound and found a penny:lol:
  14. Same here Nige, i felled 2 earlier on in the year wilth flammulina just likr that.
  15. I season outside so not an expert so im just asking, when its kiln dried and you take it out and deliver it and mrs miggins then stores it in the garage or shed etc it will only take moisture back in so your no better off really.
  16. Welome to the site, i hope things work out for you. be prepared though, there isnt a lot of money in this job and there is no guarantee of work or a wage but by hell its a bloody good job.

    not happy

    Dont worry about it, they went with a cheaper quote and got a cheap job. let you bosses know the damage and that its not really down to you to sort out.
  18. Like the quadchip and 261, was well impressed with the greenmech at the APF.
  19. Same here good powerful saw 85cc i think so just a bit less that a 66. funny i had mine knicked aswell.
  20. Nice little job there Rob.
  21. Same here, i would not get out of bed and go do an hours work at 1am in the morning for 60 quid.
  22. Eat less and do more shaggin..............
  23. To be honest Dave, it sounds like you look after yourself anyway, its one of those things that happen as we get older, i would say carry on as you are but just cut down on some of the naughty things. The last time i saw you you were hardly a "lard arse" anyway.
