Used circular saws in Mackay typically sell for A$57 to A$345 (about $40 to $240). A circular saw sells on power, blade size and one non-negotiable: the lower blade guard must spring back closed on its own, every time.
Selling a circular saw in Mackay
Mackay is a sugar town that became a mining service town, sitting between the cane fields and the coal basin inland. A large part of the working population is on rotation rather than resident full time, and that shapes both what people buy and how quickly they sell it again.
Mining rosters govern the supply. People set up a household for a contract and clear it when the contract ends, and downturns in the basin put a great deal onto the market at once rather than gradually.
Everything is done by vehicle and utes are common, which makes collecting something large easier here than in most places. Rotation schedules mean a seller may only be in town on certain weeks, so agree the window early rather than assuming flexibility.
On tools bought for mine work, ask whether they were used on site or at home. Site tools earn their keep and are often better maintained, but they have also done far more hours than the same model from a garage.

What circular saws are worth
What lifts the price
- Flat, undamaged base plates
- Retracting guards that spring back reliably
What pulls it down
- Worn arbor and bearing play
- Missing fences and spanners
Working out what yours is worth
- Lay the base plate on a flat surface and check for rock
- Check for play at the blade arbor
Getting it ready
- Test the lower guard repeatedly. If it sticks open, the saw is unsafe and must not be sold as working.
- Check the cable for nicks along its whole length, and the plug for damage.

- The base plate and depth and bevel adjusters
- The cable and plug, plus the rating plate and any damage
Put in the description
- Whether a blade, guide rail, case or dust adapter is included
- Guard function, cable condition and any fault
Heavy and awkward. Remove the blade or ensure the guard is secured for transport, and box it properly — an exposed blade in a parcel is dangerous to whoever handles it.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
