I am looking for a used mountainbike in the above price bracket as I have decided my road bike is too valuable and impractical for general commuting. I am getting a bit sick of wasting my time with Ebay, so if anyone has a good used machine for sale let me know. Obviously the newer the better and good brand name preffered. My frame size is 17-19in. Email me at sashan(nospam)@alphalink.com.au with offers, and pics would be great too. Melbourne area preffered, but will be Sydney soon so that may work also. Thanks.

Try farkin.net . I've seen a few things in Melbourne come up in their for sale forums. 26inches.com might also be worth a look, though there's a fair bit of overlap (eg most of the literate farkinners).

Have you investigated Bicycle Recycle down in Moorabbin? Might pay a slight premium over private sales but at least you can browse a fairly good range of second hand mtbs...

If you're just after a commuter MTB, you can get a pretty decent new one for around $350 - eg a Trek 3700 or similar.

That'd even have a warranty ...
Shame you're not looking in Brisbane, someone has a great deal *cough* on a Huffy 😉
