Got the opportunity to buy a large lot of top gardening tools at auction, kept the ones I wanted and am selling the ones I do not need. All New & Unused. If you need more info then check out the Mitre 10 website. Price is fix, I had to pay for these (including the auction premium) and am selling them at these low prices to come out even. Pickup in Green Bay (we live opposite Green Bay High School).
