Not sure if I should? I have a MS290 with a 18" bar, it runs good, have no problems with it, but it is the only saw that I have. I have a friend that has a used MS360 or MS361, he's not sure, going to get it from his house tomorrow. He said he only used it less than 5hrs, cutting down 2 trees and cutting the limbs off of them one day. That's it. It has been setting a few years, hopefully with gas that doesn't have ethanol or better yet no gas left in it at all? He has two bars for it a 24" and 18" a couple extra chains and a case. He owns me $100 now, I offered to give him $500 and what he owes me, for the saw. If I was to buy a new 362 and the extra bar, chains, case etc... it would probably be close to $900 with tax. So should I get it from him if it's not all messed up from leaving gas in it? It would be nice to have a extra saw, when I do something stupid and get one pinched, or one goes down, etc..?  Should I get it?

Sorry but my answer would be No, the 360 is getting quite a old saw and even the 361 is a old saw . I like the 361 better and they are a good saw but I'm not playing $500 or $600 for one and forsure not for one that has been sitting
