  1. Cheers Mark. Couriers are the unsung hero's of internet shopping, until they loose a parcel of course! Remember the bad old days when mail order took 28 days!
  2. There's no denying that quite a few people have had issues with the saw but thankfully enough they aren't all bad, although the rear av spring and attachment point is a very poor design. Hopefully this has been sorted on the next gen T540XP.
  3. Doesnt look to shabby on a 540. We now have a small selection in stock for the T540XP,550/560XP MS201/200T and MS260/261 Still in the process of getting them on the web site Sugihara Chainsawbar light pro for Husqvarna Chainsaws T540XP Sugihara Chainsawbar light pro for Stihl Chainsaws,MS200T/201T
  4. That is what happens. Make sure you login to your pp account and sort it asap. You only have a certain time to do this before they keep the funds permanently.
  5. Nice1, although I am terrible with names and faces, so I have no clue who you are mate!
  6. Cheers:thumbup1: I will get the web people on to it.
  7. Sorry for the delay chaps. I am going to pick a random number between 2 and 15 from number generator. The winning number is, 13, so thats getting drawn again, this time its 6. wisecobandit wins a £20 voucher.( I will PM you the details) Thanks to all for the help, I think we are going to go with a couple of options that should hopefully make life easier when choosing a bar and chain. Thanks again Mark
  8. I will post the winner tomorrow night, so just a quick bump if you still want to enter with an idea.(I am just picking a random number in google from the post count)
  9. Just out of interest I had a look on the husky site 576 94 51-01 is coming up as "enclosed kit" for £13.44 ex vat it is just the retaining screws, and seems quite expensive for 6 screws! It might include the handle AV but doesn't clearly show it, although I expect i should at that price. 505 15 69-01 is the wrap handle only, no screws etc at £83.72 ex vat Looks like there are non at husky UK so unless dealers have them on their shelves it looks like the end of April.
  10. The fact that you say it's meant to be a genuine still chain makes me wonder. If it is a stihl chain and all the sizing matches the bar check for damaged dive links especially if you can see where the chain has been joined together. The dive links can get slightly bent while punching out the rivets if it's not done correctly.
  11. Some great ideas coming through cheers. We are restricted in how our web site works in regards to using a drop down box type of selection. I did want to do that from the start but it wasn't possible, might be with the site revamp but I'm 99% sure it won't work. Jrose, we have that atm but it's just for spare parts for each saw so there is no problem adding in the relative bars and chains, only issue is I would have to an endless amount of other machines individually ie 357, 346, 026, 046 066 etc due to the problem goaty and ukulian pointed out. Please keep the ideas coming, Cheers.
  12. We have a lot of work scheduled on our web site and we really want to make it more user friendly. The section I am looking at atm is the guide bar selection. Chainsaw Bars - Chainsaw Carving Bar - Chainsaw Guide Bar Im not sure how this will pan out. I am looking for constructive criticism on what you think about the layout and what you would prefer. There are plenty of things things that need updating in the bar section ie descriptions, inventory and bars available etc, we have a lot more items in stock than what we have on the web site. What I need is suggestions as to how you search for guide bars, do you know exactly what you need in regards of part number, sizing etc or do you only know what machine you have and search that way, ie i need a 20" bar for a 460. What I will do, and I hope this is fair, is to include all the constructive comments into a list. the winner will receive a £20 voucher to spend either in store or on the web site. So suggestions as to how we can improve user experience please . Thanks Mark
  13. Yes we usually carry a few Husqvarna 550XP/XPG Clutch Needle Bearing 503 25 34-01 That would go out royal mail 1st class so if the postie did his job it would be there on tuesday.
  14. That part number is for the 346/357 You need 503 25 34-01
  15. That looks like a genuine 3120 to me. If it isnt its a very good copy. I was at a husky service meeting a few weeks ago and they were saying that they have came across quite a lot of near identical fake machines, nothing like the usual fake garbage you see. As they were being produced as direct copies from the factory they were able to intervene and put a stop to it. We have had quite a few customers telling me I have sent the wrong bar or chain out, when I ask for a photo of their saw sure enough its a fake.
  16. Just a quick one as someone asked what size the end of the spouts are. Approx 22mm in diameter, that goes for both oil and fuel spouts. I dont have price on the spouts atm but will update when I do.
  17. I will measure them tomorrow.
  18. Just to answer a few questions that have previously popped up- The spouts look and feel more than adequate for the job, I have tried snapping one and im sure if I put enough effort in I probably could break it but it hasnt. It comes with the anti spill oil and anti spill fuel spout plus you get an extra non auto standard type thing spout. The auto spouts can also be locked in the closed position by twisting them slightly. The spouts will fit the old husky can and vice verse, they certainly wont fit the stihl or oregon fuel cans The tool box holder will house a combi spanner, round file and flat file, they are captive so wont fall out when you tip the can upside down to refuel. The part of the tool holder you see in the pic has a rubber flap(the black part) that locks down over the grey part. Its for putting spare chains, small wedges etc in but tbh I wouldnt put a chain in there unless the chain was in a separate container as it can rub against the tank and I can see that causing some problems! There is a clear line on both oil and fuel tanks. The 5l mrk is approx here and easily read, Looks a decent bit of kit at a very reasonable price.
  19. Here at long last £29.6 inc VAT New Husqvarna Fuel Combi-can

  22. Cheers:thumbup1: Any order is well and truly appreciated mate.
  23. If you only bought that one item the postage would be £5.7 inc VAT. Just for reference if anyone else isnt sure about postage costs just add the items you want to buy to your basket, go to your basket and fill this section in- all you need to do is choose your country and put your postcode in, no other details are required Click on get quote and the postage cost, if any, will be displayed. You then click on the cost to add it to the total and everything including a VAT break down is displayed. Unlike some other web sites you dont have to fill in all your address and payment method before finding out what its all going to cost. As I think this thread has gone off tangent a bit I will lock it soon and open a new thread with all the info to the questions that have been asked as its all getting a bit lost now!
  24. I would say that a 550xp brings a smile to more faces than a MS261 It probably is the best 50cc saw available ATM.
  25. 066 is a brilliant saw. Ours is a 1998 and still runs a 36" bar no problem at all. A while ago I thought I would treat it to a set of piston rings, when I opened it up the rings were still within wear limits after over 10 years of abuse! I would always recommend to buying an 066 if a good one is available They dont break down and produce plenty of power.
