Thanks for viewing my auction. Up for bid is an exceptionally nice, and very clean professional-series mid-sized Stihl MS 260 chainsaw. It comes with a BRAND NEW 16 or 18" Stihl Rollomatic E bar and chain (winning bidder's choice between the two lengths; but upgradeable to 20" for an additional $15 fee). The smallest non-arborist saw in Stihl’s professional line-up, this saw’s a little powerhouse at 3.5HP. Plus, it's super-lightweight at only 10.1 lbs! The MS260 is powerful enough for felling trees and cutting firewood, but is light enough for professional limbing. The winner of this auction will be ready to make chips as soon as he/she takes delivery of this little hot-rod! If Buy-It-Now is used, I will include FREE UPS GROUND SHIPPING to the continental US, as well as a FREE BOTTLE OF HIGH-PERFORMANCE STIHL 2-CYCLE OIL! If BIN is not used, the winning bidder will pay for actual UPS ground shipping. Remember, as per eBay’s bidding guidelines, the BIN option disappears once the reserve has been met. Regardless of whether the BIN option is used, everything photoed will be included in the auction, including the bar and chain, scabbard, scrench, hex wrench, screwdriver, and Owner's and Safety Manuals. With fall and prime wooding cutting season here, now’s the time to take advantage of a great deal!
This professional grade chain saw has an excellent power-to-weight ratio and an improved air filter system. Other user-friendly features include side-access chain tensioner, IntelliCarb™ compensating carburetor, translucent fuel tank, and toolless fuel and oil caps.
Standard Features
- Automatic bar and chain oiler
- IntelliCarbTM compensating carburetor
- Side access chain tensioner
- Toolless fuel and oil caps with retainers
- Carburetor preheat shutter for summer/winter operation
There's absolutely nothing wrong with this saw; it runs and cuts as wonderfully as it looks. The plastic on it is in great condition; it’s free from cracks, chips, breaks, and deep scratches. As would be expected, all of the anti-vibration isolator mounts are good and solid and there's little paint wear. Being in such great condition, it has fantastic compression; it starts, idles, oils and cuts as it was designed to – no disappointments here. If you are not familiar with the popular Stihl MS 260, this model is built to higher standards and uses better components than other mid-sized Stihl saws. It features professional-grade engine components, magnesium engine cases, inboard chain brake, rim-style sprocket, AV mounting system, electronic ignition, and the Stihl craftsmanship and durability they’re famous for.
Every saw I own gets run on high octane, non-oxygenated (i.e. no ethanol) gasoline, mixed only with Stihl Ultra 2-cycle oil. I normally use Stihl bar and chain lubricant, as well.

Check-out Information:
Following the end of the auction, feel free to click the “Pay Now” icon on the listing page. At that time, you can either submit payment via Paypal or notify me of your payment being submitted another way.

Payment Information:
Payments through Paypal are the quickest and easiest way to expedite your order. Instant payments (those issued via Paypal using a credit card or Paypal balance) typically ship the same or following business day. Payments sent via checking accounts normally require 3-5 business before Paypal gives notification to buyer and seller that funds have cleared, so please keep that in mind when choosing and sending your payment. Payments of any kind are to be received within 5 business days from auction end. No exceptions, please.
Packaging & Handling Information:
As an active eBay buyer myself, I vow to do a fantastic job of properly and safely preparing your item for shipment, and to do so without adding a bunch of additional costs on the side. Nothing is more disappointing than having to pay inflated S&H charges or having to take delivery of a damaged item due to an irresponsible seller. Feel 100% confident that your item will be packaged to the best possible extent without having to pay a premium.
Shipping Information:
General Shipping Information: Unless otherwise noted in the item description, winning bidders will pay for actual UPS or USPS shipping rates from zip code 54667, with multiple purchases receiving combined shipping discounts. On most listings, there will be multiple shipping options available. Please remember this during checkout, as the shipping cost and delivery time will be effected by the service selected. For exact rates on shipping, please see the shipping calculator in this listing. I do not ship out of the United States, so please don't bid on this item - nor ask me if I will ship this item out of the United States - if you are an international bidder.

USPS: Unless specifically noted otherwise, small and/or light-weight items will be shipped USPS. Items weighing less than 13 oz will usually be sent First Class Mail. Items weighing more than 13 oz, but less than 1 lb, will normally be sent Priority Mail. Packages weighing more than 1 lb will typically be sent via Priority Mail as well, but may also be shipped UPS if found to be more cost effective.
