Honda Lawnmowers - Price Fixing and Cartel ??
 
I am in the market for a new HRX476QX.

After much exhaustive searching on the internet for UK companies, I
have come to the conclusion that there must be some sort of price
fixing / cartel going on.

I cannot even get one from the USA due to Honda's selling policy.

For an average price of £649, every lawnmower business selling Honda's
are as good as dam offering the same price.

Or does somebody kow where I can get one from cheaper ??? Ireland ??
France ?? any ideas.

Honda Lawnmowers - Price Fixing and Cartel ??
 
g'day postandrail,

as honda are not into selling discount machines like lots of other
companies they are only then competing at the higher quality end of
the market so are moslty only sold in specialist mower stores, at the
appropriate price.

i would not be expecting to find a model at a discounted price might
get a marginal offer off the price but that would be it.

With peace and brightest of blessings,

len & bev

How well does it cope with wet grass?
