Are these men deluded on their value or just fishing for a sucker?
$150?? Come on.

They're all asking too much but this takes the cake.


Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!

Probably because it was recently at a mower shop and they charged $150 to rebuild the carby.

Quite honestly, if you know nothing about fixing mowers and want a 2 stroke, you could do worse that that one.

He needs to be realistic. Mower looks good though.

That was the one place you could turn to for realistic asking prices when it was new about six years ago.
Not anymore. It's as bad as the other two.

That's basically rubbish from a tidy up.

That twin has been on for ages. The orange overspray on the engine can't be helping.... and the ludicrous asking price.
