If you don't know a bar from a chain, you should have looked at the
paperwork with the saw or checked on the Internet. The story doesn't
make sense. They hand you a bar and you don't know it from a chain?
Why can't you return it? A chain saw is extremely dangerous. Accidents
happen quickly. I urge you to get some training from a qualified user
(of chainsaws) before continuing.

That seems reasonable. Why do you think you were scammed?

Ever get taken advantage of by a "service' org.?
Lenny Bruce wanted to write a book of phrases that you could use when
getting
an estimate on some repairs, like a stereo or your car.
Like if the stereo went out, you could use a phrase from the book ,
Well, I don't
have time to fix this stereo because I'm busy putting in a Microwave
tower on the hill.
and the "Car Talk Guys" always warn you against getting your car fixed
when the mechanic's boat payments are due.
Really, sometimes you just are at the mercy of these petty criminals.
My advice , getting an estimate or two.three? Or deal with a friend's
reccomendations
and Good Luck !

bad idea - always get quotes.

many such recommendations come from one or few purchases, sometimes
from sellers with a very high incidence of complaints.
This is all very basic stuff that shoild be taught in schools.
