This seems to sell and then more get relisted pretty quickly so please don't expire too prematurely, or get upset if you see that they are sold out because chances are they WILL restock!
I've been watching this for the past week and the listings keep selling out, but then they make another listing! :D
I've linked to their store, to make it easier for checking back to see if they have it still. I've bought one, self-propelled is £12.75 more, if you wanted!

Please read this before ordering:
“Items have been used and returned to store. The box has been opened and the machine assembled and it has had limited use. We have tested and refurbished the entire machine and have repackaged it in a plain box. The signs of use will be minor scratches/scuffs on the body of the machine and paint missing and possibly surface rust underneath.”
Also read: PLEASE NOTE: ALL OF OUR MACHINES ARE FUELLED AND OILED AND TESTED BEFORE RELEASE. WHILST WE DO MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO ENSURE THAT THE MACHINES ARE ALL EMPTIED OF FLUIDS AS MUCH AS IS POSSIBLE BEFORE THEY LEAVE, THERE MAY BE RESIDUAL FLUIDS LEFT IN THE MACHINE. IF THE MACHINE IS TIPPED DURING TRANSIT THEN OIL COULD BE RELEASED ONTO OTHER PARTS OF THE MOWER. THIS MEANS THAT, UPON STARTING THE MOWER FOR THE FIRST TIME, THE MOWER WILL SMOKE FOR THE FIRST15 MINUTES OR SO. THIS IS JUST EXCESS OIL BURNING OFF AND IS NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.

I like your honesty, I wish more could have the same attitude on HUKD.

Looks like they've sold out ATM, keep an eye on the link, it will be back. I'll message the mods to ask them to unexpire the deal when I see they have relisted some more. If everyone else could do the same that would be great as you are only allowed to contact the mods once about each post so I could unexpire once but not any more!

Bought a sovereign mower from CPC garden when they were posted on here a few weeks back. Turned out to be faulty, struggling to get a refund , e mails ignored, phone number shown never gets answered, awaiting the outcome of a PayPal claim. Mine may have been just a one off faulty item, but doesn't excuse there rubbish customer service, and there reluctance to replace or refund the faulty item. A case of Buyer Beware I think with this company.

Thanks for adding your experience. Might by a case of avoid the sovereigns and go for Qualcast so that you don't end up with a faulty item as you will have issues getting anywhere.
Having said that they have 99% feedback so generally their gear must be well tested and services before they send it back.

Looks like they've sold the 3 they had, the last one being sold at 15:13:02 BST today.
Nevermind, voted HOT, HOT, HOT! for the effort before someone goes and marks this EXPIRED!
Edit: If you've been watching this deal for a week, you certainly took your time deciding over whether or not to buy. The first one of the 3 was only sold at 11:20:46 BST today :smirk:
