Can anyone provide a vendor (website url) that sells and ships Honda
lawn mowers? I'm looking for Honda Harmony II model HRR216TDA, or
possibly a Honda Masters model. (Why are these so difficult to find?)
Thanks.

Does Honda's web site list shipping dealers?

Been there, done that. None of the dealers listed have the models I
mentioned.

Honda has taken a stand with their dealers and strictly controls
pricing, and discourages if not flat out stops internet sales!!

Best pricing will be from local dealers were you can negotiate
pricing.

I have not found any that will ship at a reasonable cost. I may end
up buying a Husqvarna instead of Honda..

And the dealers aren't willing to order one?

The dealers I visited say they are either sold out, or do not carry
that model. I looked at the Cycle 128 web site and they won't ship
due to the cost. I guess 83 pounds in a large box is too much for
UPS, and freight shipping would exceed $100.

I don't know if this is unusual, but the Honda auto dealer near me also
sells lawn mowers. Maybe you could contact one of their auto dealerships if
you haven't already.

FedEx Ground is the cheap deal on shipping. Check them out.

Okay. So they don't have any in stock, and/or they never did. The
question remains: Are they not willing to order one?

Call Honda directly, ask to speak to a sales manager, as him/her to think
hard about who's one of the more aggressive district sales managers, and get
the name of a dealer who wants to actually do business.

The dealers normally have the advantage of shipping many units at once via
truck. Why should they pay the inflated shipping cost for just one unit?
Would you rather find a dealer whose price is $85 higher and have him tell
you shipping's included?

Why not call Honday and ask them to locate 10 units for you, and let you
decide if you'd like to take a one day drive to pick one up.
