Hey guys, I am looking at buying a new chainsaw, and came across this store: Chain Saws Direct | Your Online Chainsaw Superstore. Does anybody have experience with them, i.e. shipping, customer service, etc.? Any comments are appreciated.

Chainsaws Direct is part of PowerEquipmentDirect, which is the same company that MowersDirect comes from. Here is some talk about MowersDirect and other places online to buy equipment, and the pros and cons: http://www.lawnmowerforum.com/mower-buying-pricing/16512-online-purchase.html

A few things to keep in mind are...

-You can't ship it back once there has been gas run through it. :frown: (Return Policy @ Power Equipment Direct.com - Your Online Power Equipment Direct Superstore)
-Will there be a cost for shipping?
-What will you do if there is something missing/broken?

WELCOME to these Forums....
Just looked at that site... Like lmf said they are a part of another "Direct" site.
But for a comparison I picked a chainsaw from their listing, I put in in a Google search and 4 out of 5 top returns with the Same exact saw all were 10 percent or more Less $ plus free shipping... So if you are shopping that site just for a better price, check Google first. :smile:KennyV
