Used circular saws in Hobart typically sell for A$57 to A$345 (about $40 to $240). Saws are judged on the base plate and guard, because a bent plate makes accurate cutting impossible.
Selling a circular saw in Hobart
Hobart is the country’s second-oldest city and the coldest of its capitals, with a great deal of genuinely old housing stock still standing below the mountain. It is the departure point for Antarctic expeditions and has a strong arts and market culture, and both of those put unusual things into circulation.
Antarctic and research programmes rotate people through on fixed contracts, and the colonial-era housing stock turns over with genuinely old contents. Winter here is long and cold, so warm clothing and heating-adjacent goods move seasonally.
The city is built on hills and the older streets are narrow and steep, so access matters more here than the short distances suggest. The waterfront and the centre are the easy places to meet; anything up the slope needs a conversation about parking.
Measure the stairwell and the doorway, not just the item. A great deal of housing here is old, steep and narrow, and that is the commonest reason a furniture collection falls through in this city.
Handing it over in Hobart
Australia’s second-hand market is strongly local and strongly seasonal, with most activity concentrated in the eastern capitals and buyers who expect to collect. Around Battery Point, North Hobart and Sandy Bay are where this sort of thing tends to change hands.

Brand, blade size and power: “Makita 190mm Circular Saw, 1200W, Corded” or “DeWalt 18V Cordless Circular Saw, Body Only”. Blade diameter is the search. On cordless tools say body only or how many batteries, because it changes the price completely.

What condition is the cable in?
Run it through your hands and inspect it. Nicked insulation on a power tool cable is a real risk and must be disclosed.
