Buying second-hand
Used-market tip
£3000–5000 used (rare on Marketplace — these are dealer-traded). Confirm all 4 batteries are EGO genuine. Test runtime under realistic load. Service history matters — these need proper maintenance like any commercial machine.
Where to look: Facebook Marketplace and Gumtree are usually 20–30% cheaper than eBay UK for petrol mowers because most sellers want local pickup. eBay tends to win on cordless and electric (lighter, easier to ship). Always insist on a starting demonstration before paying.
