Guess I missed the whole point, and never got any special savings...BUT after the fallen tree issue and my $300 STIHL chain saw that is same as NEW but won't start worth a sh*t I went ahead and ordered a Milwaukee 8" electric pruning saw plus battery and charger.  I KNOW I will love it!!!

In all of my small gasoline powered tools like chain saw and weedeaters I use the pre mix fuel. Yes, it costs about 4-5 times more, but I use so little it’s not a big deal. Has cut my tool problems down to zero of the past 10 years.

Me too, Darian, and that saw still is a problem child! Even after I had had it for like 15 months I took it back to the STIHL dealer where I bought it and they "tuned it up" or maybe "tuned ME up" for $85. It still is a bear to start and yes I drain it between uses as they suggested. Boy do I regret that purchase!

Over the past 45 years I have had 1 from Monkey Ward, 2 by Homelite and when I bought this STIHL for $400 I thought it would be my last - HA HA HA - last STIHL chain saw that's for certain!!! Wish I had that old cheap one back from Monkey Ward - it was a beast, but I simply wore it out cutting up many trees for firewood way back over 40 years ago.

Sounds like you just got a Lemon Stihl.

I suppose! Though I now have had 2 STIHL back pack blowers which I need and use religiously due on our big lot with all these oak, maple, hickory and walnut trees. Thus 2nd one I bought last Fall is a sweetheart!!!

But Darian, you know what the senior owner at my STIHL dealership told me? He said of all the products they sell (Deere, STIHL and ECHO) STIHL has the worst customer complaints and issues that they as a dealership have to deal with!

I ran a Stihl blower and string trimmer for years and switched to Milwaukee electric last year. Not sure why I didn't do so sooner.

I installed a robotic lawnmower this season to cover most of my lawn. The setup was way more work than I thought, but the grass looks better than I'd keep it when I was doing the cutting.

Would you sell the one you’ve never unboxed?  I’ve been looking at air fryers but never pulled the trigger.

SELL??? Hey...here's a helluva deal for you...I will just GIVE you that brand new one if you are willing to pay for the postage!

Obviously I have no clue what that postage will cost until I take it to the USPO! I need your address since I don't save that info. Just PM me that info so we can get this ball rolling and then we can take it from there! BUT of course I won't ship until WE agree on those terms! 

I will be going to bed shortly so please don't think I am avoiding you tonight!

I sent you the PM.

And as you already know - your new air fryer is on the way tomorrow! Now... just to figure out the best way to "give away or pitch the other one"!

Jim,
OH BOY - did I screw up!!! I just went to our basement to get that new air fryer and when I lifted the box it was EMPTY!!! I asked my wife WHAT THE H*LL???

She said she donated the new one to her church for a fund raiser a couple years ago! That empty box was the one ours came in as she likes to save large empty boxes for whatever reason!!!

I feel like a real heel - but it is what it is - I'M SO SORRY!!!

I will post this public apology to you on the BGE forum as well.
Ron

I was very happy that I was invited to this deal. It is magnificent in person. Almost a $500 watch for $190 all in
