I have a homelite chanisaw that has a fuel leak and wont stay tuned corredctly so I am thinking of getting a new saw.

There is husky 350 that looks new on craigslist around me for 225.00

There is also a local shop that has a well used stihl 290 for 250.oo

Are these decent prices.

I can get a remanufactured husky 455 for 299.00 so is it worth getting a used one for a little less


Go with the one that has a dealer close to you.

I have a 290 and it does very well for the wood we are cutting. I could have got a longer bar but 16" does us well and the saw is trouble free.
