Doug, I have a Husky 435. I bought it as a refurbished off of ebay. It was much cheaper that way. When I got it I couldn't believe what arrived. It was a brand new saw. The seller buys these things buy the container load. They all have small imperfections that are easily fixed or make it that they can't be sold as new. They might have a scratch on the case or something like that. Anyway, the saw works perfect. The only problem I ever had with it was learning how to start it once it warms up. It was a little different than my old Husky 61.
Here's a link to the sale from the same folk's I bought from.
