I found a mint 08 RER with a briggs 12.5 electric start with a 28"hi vac with ninja blade delivered for $500! It was used very little and is truly like new.
It runs perfect and our Son had it out last night cutting and it runs great!

Hi my name is Frank, I have a Snapper RER Model # 30085S. It was the mower I used to mow my parents yard when I was younger and was passed down to me by my dad when he got a new Snapper RER. I recently re-did all the decals and gave it a fresh coat of paint. Here are some before and after pics.

Really great job, Frank! I love to see RER's restored. For too long, they were looked at as "cheap junk", and treated as such when their useful life came to a close........:frown:

Usually, my 'deals' also come with the following:

"....and here's the box with the tranny pieces.....I think it's all there......."

:laughing:

I was just thinking....That mower is almost four years old! It must have next to NOTHING for hours!

*Shaking head* I can't get over that.....you should buy a lottery ticket, too!

Not a ding.....not a heat mark on the engine.......bet the tires even have the little nipples on them! It's factory-fresh! Even if you'd really REALLY cleaned it up, it wouldn't look so......so......NEW. You may not have restored it, but you had the good sense to jump on a good deal....so congrats on your good sense! :biggrin:

You truly scored the deal of the decade, man. Next you'll tell us about the Humvee you got for $700.......LOL :laughing:
