Look at this

Hi NormK, here's the thing. They have a couple of 2 stroke mowers left. I asked well what price can you give me for one. I got a slightly cheaper price this time of $499. It's still too much I reckon. Last time they gave me a price of $550.

So it seems to be coming down a slight bit. I think the problem is these guys are also thinking now is the time to make a bit of money off these "collectors" as they know it's the end of the line for this mower. One of the guys in there even said what are we going to do with them after that date? No one said anything.

I think they can order more in from the warehouse though. Just a little thing I picked up when he suddenly said oh we have 2 then it suddenly went up to 6 mowers? Where did that come from?

You know what NormK, I think it's best to wait a little longer, I have a feeling they will get cheaper again when it gets nearer to this cut off date.

Cheers!

Converse, usually it takes them between a week and a month to reply.

I believe there is only one bloke who does all the Victa emails - over the past couple of years I have sent a few emails to them, and the same bloke always replys.
Cant think of what his name is, but it is like an Indian name.

Converse, the old Kenny Rogers stuff , you've got to know when to hold them, you've got to know when to fold them.

G'day everyone,

Hey Tyler, at least you do get a reply back mate, remember some years ago I contacted them about their air filters..lol. I never got a reply and it's been years now. This time though I have tried to contact them via the Victa contact page and also through another email directly to Briggs And Stratton Australia. I really want someone to read the email about the last Victa 2 stroke.

Yes NormK that's a good one. You know for me to buy a new last ever Victa 2 stroke, I want to actually buy 2 of them. One to use and one to put away. If I can get 2 for the price of 1 i'm sold. lol.

Cheers!
