Hey guys, I was looking at an ms440 for sale locally.  Have not had a chance to look at it in person yet, but ad says in good condition, case included, with 24" b/c.  Is $550 a good price if all seems well with this saw?  Says saw is hardly used.  Also any opinions from people who have used one would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Good saws no doubt about that .Much weeping and gnashing of teeth when Stihl took them off the line up .Price is in the eye of the buyer I suppose .

They seem to be going for $400 - $500 on E-bay, so it looks like that's the price of admission for a good used one.  There are a lot of them available, so if you want one you can find one pretty easily.  My friend has a 440 Magnum, and it's an awesome saw.  You could get an 044 for considerably less, if that fits your needs.

Not a bad price if the condition is REALLY good - like new. I would pay it. My 044 doesn't have a decomp like the 440 does...
