Murray is the name brand that is marketed for Home Depot. It's a reliable
mower, but I would at least price out what they're going for new before you
agree to that price. If the center bearing has seized, look the entire mower
over carefully for other signs of owner neglect.

I am thinking of buying a Murray riding mower from a neighbor. He's
gussing it's about 5 years old. 46in. cut, "Big Tires, not the turf
ones", 2 cylinder 18hp. What do you guys think about this? He is
asking $500 for it. He said that the center bearing on the mower deck
is seized and will need to be replaced. He said he replaced the
outside ones last year for about $20 a pop. Now he is dissabled and
can't use the mower any more. What do you guys thing? does this sound
like a good deal or no?

Thanks,
Adam
