Second-hand tools & DIY in Bundaberg typically sells for A$29 to A$960 (about $20 to $675). A full kit in its case with every accessory is worth considerably more than the bare tool, since replacing the pieces separately is expensive. Anything that has been on a building site has done far more hours than the same age suggests at home.
Buying tools & DIY in Bundaberg
Bundaberg is a sugar town with a distillery famous well beyond the region, sitting on a river that has flooded seriously more than once in living memory. Flood history is part of how people here think about storing anything valuable, and it is worth knowing when you buy.
Battery platforms do not interchange between makers, and a tool that will not take the packs somebody already owns is worth far less to them. Bringing a battery along to try settles compatibility in seconds. Locally, tool sets are one of the few things that move reliably enough to be worth listing on their own.
What to check in person
Put a battery on charge and come back to it, because a pack that reaches full in moments has lost most of its capacity. Look at the brushes and vents for dust packed solid, which is what kills a motor that has been used on site.
Collecting it in Bundaberg
It needs a car boot rather than a bag, so agree somewhere you can actually stop for a few minutes. That is easier away from the centre than in it.
The city is flat and driving is easy, so collection is straightforward. For anything that has been stored at ground level near the river, it is entirely normal here to ask how it came through the last flood, and sellers expect the question.

Seasonal harvest work brings people in and out through the year, and households set up cheaply for a season are cleared just as quickly. Flood recovery also puts a great deal of replaced household equipment onto the market at once.
Say the age, whether it has been used domestically or on site, and how many batteries and chargers are included. Have it plugged in and ready to run when the buyer arrives, because that one gesture removes most of the haggling. Busiest through spring and summer, when outdoor and building work picks up.
Bank transfer via PayID is instant and is what most private buyers will offer. Cash on collection remains common for larger items.
