I was wondering how much I can sell this mower I have,(in the pictures) I was thinking 45 to 50 dollars, it is in great shape, but I do not know much about the price they sell for, should I sell it for less, or for more?

Hmmm,,,5 hp Briggs, I'd say it's about a 1998 model. Looks okay, does the front drive self-propel work okay? Does it start and run okay after a few pulls? Doesn't emit any smoke when running (would ssignal it had bad rings)....? Is blade in decent shape? Since it's a rear bagger type deck that means the buyer either has to mulch or have a rear bag....nobody will be dumb enough (hopefully not) to prop the rear chute open with a wire and use it that way. If no bag, that limits the use to someone who wants to mulch only.

If the points I made are addressed and it runs and cuts okay....$45 is fair. A bag can be purchased but hard to find one to fit. With a bag included, $50-$55. The cheapest new push mower I have seen this year (not self propelled) is $125, self propelled, $200. Ask $50 to begin with and be prepared to take $35-40 IF things work okay on the mower.

Everything is as you said. Oh man, I wish the bag came with it.
The person I am going to sell it to will be mulching his yard.
Thanks for your feedback!!
