i had one on demo about 4 years since i used it on a lawn in damp conditions and it seemed to cut and bag OK i did not purchase it because you could not get right up to the edge of the lawn.

you can purchase one new for £399 with 3 months warranty for commercial use and 2 years for private use, as this mower was bought about 18 months (i presume)  it would be a cheaper purchase price then so i would say the second hand price would be £175-£200 depending on condition of course. if it is a dealer who is selling it he will have given £50 part ex

From experience in the past I would say they are rather poor build quality and not really suitable for the professional gardener. I would highly recommend an Etesia mower. I have a couple and they are amazing. They cut in any conditions and cut lawns that are amazingly long without any problems. They were made for cutting graveyards!  I also use the ride on version and would never use another mower.
