Default Thinking of selling my whipper snipper

Ok guys as much as i love my Ryobi Whipper Snipper, it has become evident in the last 3 months of ownership that

A. WA's grass is boring to cut on,
B. Noise Limits are too Low
C. My legs have been sliced up by rocks too much lately.
D. I'm too scared of blowing the motor on a big weed or root.
E. I need something that makes a finer cut and is easier to start.

So what would a 3 month old blue Ryobi whipper snipper with 10 hours on it be worth? only mods are a water sprayer, dump pipe, high strength nylon cord and k&n filter . all of which will be removed / left on depending on the buyer.

I'm still not decided tho....

WA's grass isn't boring. Have you even tried taking your whipper Snipper to the park?

You should try scissors

I have scissors and the are great - take a little longer but very smooth and quiet

Cut really fine and no motor to blow

you could sell your 3 month old blue Ryobi whipper snipper with 10 hours for $20 and buy 2 pairs of scissors and have change

The park is too hardcore, leave that to the big boys with yellow vests.
