re: Took my chainsaw to be repaired...

Years ago, a shop told me the repair costs were more than the saw was worth.
Had the exact same experience at a small engine shop near me with a lawn mower.
They recommended I buy a new mower for ~$400.
Brought it home, youtubed it and in about an hour had it running.
Just pulled up the victory video and realized that was 5 years ago. I still use it to this day.

ETA: I understood the shops pricing structure and I understood their stance. I also understood that wasn't the best solution for an otherwise great mower and further understood I didn't mind putting in the work to get it fixed.
I believe everyone was happy in the end.
