Man, life is just too busy!   I haven't touched it yet, but boy do I have a story to tell you!


After I bought the saw, it was months before I got to using it.  In that time, I had decided to stay away from that other forum.  There was a lot of garbage there, and the owner was doing some things I saw as dishonest, so I just cut all ties.  I mean ALL ties.  Then I lost the email address of the guy I bought it from, and had no way to get back to him when it wasn't running right.  I didn't even remember his name.

So, I just chalked it up to a bad purchase on my part, and figured I'd have to eat it.


Well, turns out he hangs out here.  After I posted this thread, the guy PMd me and offered to make it right!   :o

 ;D


I'm not sure if I should post his name, as it's kind of a two edged sword.  The saw has never been right, so that's not good (but it was his first 576), but man, on the integrity scale, he's a 10!    My hat is off to him!  He could have just kept quiet and nobody would have known anything else.

I told my family about this, and used him as a good example to my boys of how a man of integrity behaves.  Outstanding!


He's not giving a full refund, and I don't think he should!   In fact, after all this time, I don't think he owes me one thin dime.  But, he's made a very generous offer of helping with the cost of this repair.

I'm impressed, and I'd do business with him again any day!


He told me to contact spike or terry for a quote.  So, spike or terry, PM me if you'd like, and we'll get this thing done.
