    i bought it as brand new from eBay. seller was in East Bentleigh (VIC). at that time seller had about 5-10 of them.

    but it was from auction, so not sure if seller has more in stock.

    The best mower is the one the gardening contractor uses on my lawn. It works so effortlessly that I can sit back and have a beer whilst its doing its job.

    I've got a 4 stroke Victa, ít's a red one, not sure what model. It starts first time every time and I don't look after it at all, had it about 5 years.

    (Maybe I should check the oil......)

    I bought a Victa VE40 2 stroke mower last month for $389. Because my whipper snipper and blower are 2 stroke I kept with the same motor. Sure there are more expensive models/brands but I like hanging onto my cash as long as I can.

    Its easy to start/operate and will be my third Victa 2 stroke. My last Victa died after 20 years, some of those being used on a lawn-mowing round being belted each day.

    You'd better look after this one then, otherwise you won't be allowed to get another one.
    Of course I'm brave, I'm afraid of NO man, and only a few women.

    I guess smaller things amuse even smaller minds.

    Thanks guys for these feedbacks.

    While I was doing my normal shopping , I found SANLI PowerCut and PowerMulch ( Model number: PCS400 and PMS400 ) for 370 dollar.

    Any idea about this mower (budget between 400-450),,,,,less in price would be better ?

    Thanks
