I'm in *desperate* need of a 6' 3pt. finish mower, and haven't been able to find one anywhere for a decent price. Could barely afford to buy new, so a used one that works great would be nice. I live in southern Maryland, so if you have one availabe and needs shipped, please take that into account. Ifyou have one, email me info asap (remove the NOSPAM from my email).

Thanks!

I agree with the watch out for statements. I have a 6' I'd let you have for a couple of hundred :) I think the only reason most people would get rid of one is because it is shot, mine is after 20 years of tough mowing... If you look at one watch for cracks in the deck coming from the spindle mounting holes, run it with the guard covers off and see if any of the spindles are bent, one of mine is and it makes that pully wobble something fearce, throws the belt! Buy a brand name that you can get parts for like a Woods or Bushhog, mine is something like Northeast or Southwest,might as well be eastwest cause they are out of business and I can't get parts!

I bought a new Woods for my A, glad I spent the money, problem free and there will be parts forever, maybe next year I can get a new one for my 300 and trade in this "well used" piece that I have to fix and repair daily!

i don't know how handy you are at fixing things or how much money you want to sink into equipment, but used anything can cost big bucks to even get it into decent operating shape. myself, i would rather buy new so i know what i have to start with and also get a warranty. "Let the Buyer Beware".

Yea, I know all that. After all, I sure didn't buy the 1961 AC D15 tractor I'll use it with new. (before my time) :)

Why should I especially "Watch out on used finish mowers!"? Any specific reasons, or the same reasons when buying anything used?

Well, you are buying a gearbox, bearings, and some blades. The rest is frame & shielding. When would you get rid of a mower???? When the $500 gearbox is shot????? Hummm.

And, this is just a gentle reminder - the webmaster doesn't like personal ads out in the discussion forums - she has a place for these ads - might want to go to the classifieds, where people with stuff to sell/buy are looking.....
