Best way to sell my Poulan tractor mower?

[Zenmower]

Now that I've bought a new tractor mower, any suggestions as to how to easily sell my Poulan tractor mower?

Not sure what year it is. I bought it used myself for $450 about 2 years ago and had it overhauled for another $450 after a year of letting my tenants use it to mow 2 very rough acres of land - which they made very nice and mowable in the process of nearly ruining my mower. Fair trade off since I now live on that property and enjoy mowing the yard.

I just want a couple of hundred dollars for this mower now. It still cranks right up and I just mowed about an acre on the 4th with it. I need to install a mandrel shaft to replace one that somehow had the star pattern all mashed up. I have the new shaft - just need to get that top nut off and that's going to be a bear.

Okay.. sorry.. rambling again. lol


Any suggestions to easily, quickly sell something like this for about $250? Not trying to make any money here.

Thanks for any ideas. Houston/Katy area BTW if you're interested...

Whoops.

If it helps, this mower has a 16.5 hp B&S engine that cranks right up and runs smooth and powerful. It is a 2 blade 42" deck. Headlights work.

Yeah, I will wind up doing one or both if need be. Just wondering if there is a short cut like selling it to a mower repair shop for parts... and/or to be refurbished. It really wouldn't take much to make this all the way solid again.

Would it be worth my while to call some local mower repair shops?

A shop at best will give $50

Probably so. I'll probably wind up going with Craigslist and ask $250, take $200. Someone will still get a couple of good seasons of mowing out of it.

Keep it as a back up. Lord knows we don't have enough mowers!!!

If you live on a busy street, do it the old fashioned way by parking it in your front yard with one of these attached to it.
