Welper, I just listed it on Craigslist with 2 photos for $350. Why totally give it away right? Still a great price.

Fortunately my street is very slow.

I tried convincing my wife it would be good as a backup mower and/or to handle the tougher areas of our property to help preserve and extend the life of the new mower. But we did just buy a bran new Husqvarna self-propelled walk behind for trimming... and as backup if our rider must be in the shop. Also - she kept back $200 when writing me a check to cover the new Lowes credit card account I opened to save the 5% with - thus kind of forcing me to sell... lol.

I will have a look at the Private Party ads forum.


I mowed my back and side yards today (about an acre total) with the new Husqvarna YTH24K46 and WOW! I just blazed through that high grass and weeds and must have finished in easily half the time! Anyway... that's for another new thread soon.

You should get that easily.

Great send a pic of it when you get a chance so we can see it. Thanks

Yeah that's a good price! Your mower might not be in as good of shape as some of these, but they are listed for a higher price, so whoever buys it will get a great deal! :smile:


And I understand your mower might not be a Poulan PRO.

Yeah, I think I listed a good price at $350. Here's the link to my Craiglist post. HERE

And here are a couple of shots of the new kid on the block, just before putting about 1.2 hours of service on her.

Such an upgrade! What a pleasure it was today tearing through my tall weeds and whacky multi-specied fast growing country grass! Loved throttling that thing up and flying through the thick parts without slowing down!

Woot!

Sooooooooold to an Americannnnn.... :cool:

Just slightly over 24 hours in Craigslist and I have cash in hand $350, no haggle, no fuss, no muss. The buyer was very happy. I helped load it in his truck and off they drove into the sunset.

That was my very first experience as a seller on Craigslist. Come to think of it, that very mower I sold was the very first and only thing I've ever bought on Craigslist! So I am happy to know that Craigslist is such a viable way to sell!

Thanks for all the suggestions folks! :wink:

Indeed. Now I can focus on maintaining and servicing the Husqvarna "Beast"! Make that Husqvarnas... I mustn't overlook the very recently acquired little brother HU775H 127cc 22" self-propelled walk behind for trimming and small jobs around the "ranch". So I have two brand new Husqvarnas to raise! Yes, I'm quickly becoming a lawn mower geek. I need to vent this new found geek enthusiasm in the Husqvarna group next! lol
