Hydrostatic Transmission
I would be in the $1200 - $1300 neighborhood considering that the season is already half over. Things to watch on that unit is the notorious K46 transaxle which is a high failure item. The link to the Deere forum will give all the pro and cons of the X300 series.

Hey guys, I stumbled onto a really nice John Deere X300 42" deck, 2007 model, Kawasaki engine, 340 hours. What would it be worth in great shape? It basically looks new, it's been taken care of meticulously.
Unless you really need the tractor functions a zero turn will do the mowing much better and faster.
Used commercial will hold up well and be about the same or less money. Welded deck not stamped, as heavy as you can afford....

Ug...I bought an X 320 last season and had no idea about this. I did notice last Sat. when I mowed it acted like it was slowing down on a slight grade. Paid $2400 for the damn thing. Its a 4 wheel steering model and I cant afford the replacement.
