I just emailed Treestuff. See what happens. I am in the market for a new saw.
Wayne

Wayne I may be in the market also, just depends on how the new bar on my current saw goes.  I Tree stuff recon its about $160ish for shipping of the Husky, so a bit over $400.  Same saw here is $669.

Hey Mayney
Did you log onto Amazon and simply purchased the item? I am looking at an Echo saw from them.
Donuts
P.S. was it from Patio Lawn and Garden?
Hi Donuts,
Yeah that's right mate, you will see a notification saying if that item cannot be shipped to address otherwise all good!
Good luck
Mayney :cheers:

Tried to pretend to purchase any type of chainsaw on Amazon and it kept coming up as not being able to ship. (OZ) I will have to use a fowarding address.

The chainsaw was sold from Amazon Export Sales, Inc. There are external sites that sell like chainsawsdirect.

My chainsaw arrived this evening, 8 dfays after ordering!!!

Okay I have thought about this. I am going to buy a small Echo or Stihl around the 2-3 hundred mark and have it shipped to someone like (shipito) or suggestions given to me and If it works I will then go and buy the $500 jobbie for the fourby.  :laugh:

KTM a motorcycle manufacturer did it with USA dealers 12-18mths ago
but people made a work around..
Theres a group riders in USA on one forum, that now buy the parts for you, and ship them instead :) They been doing it for 12-18mths.


From the comments
"The Competition Act 2010 at s45 prevents contracts, arrangements and understandings that lessen competition.
 Surely this fits the bill.
Given they've gotten together to do it makes it a cartel, and that is criminal conduct under Part IV Division 1. If the ACCC does nothing re this they may as well remove the COnsumer from their title."




"... it means shoppers will no longer be able to save up to 50 per cent by buying labels from overseas"
Bullshyte... that will never stop.

Quite similar, though probably different price categories?

Just ordered one of these from tree stuff. 1 week delivery to Melbourne according to the FedEx transit notification. Postage a bit expensive but still works out about half the price I've seen here.

Delivered Friday.  ;D

5 days order to door. Very happy with Treestuff service  :cup:

Now I just need to find a bag to keep it in.
