OK. Found a new, leftover Jonsered 2255 and I am thinking of making an offer on it.
Does anyone have one of these?
Opinions?
Thanks
 
I could be totally wrong on this, but...
I believe it's very similar to a Husq. 455.
What is the asking price?
 
Same assembly line and most parts just better colors.
I can get the 455 for $360 at Lowe's with my Military discount. The 2255 is $426 but i'm thinking of offering $300 and see what happens. Matbe he'll match Lowes.
 
455 and 2255 are the same exact saw with the same exact part numbers for replacements on the non red/orange parts. I think $426 is a little high, though. I don't think he'll sell for $300, but you can sure try. I think you should walk if he can't come down to the Husky's price.
