I don't know about Bend being cheaper. Ace's been really competitive as far as I'm concerned. And their people know what they're talking about.
You might want to make the drive to Bend if you are looking for a "big" chainsaw. Prices will be cheaper there.

Not sure but probably. They do sell chainsaws though. Just not sure what size.
