Where can I get a decent second hand kitchen cheap

I have a very tight budget, but I need to replace the horrible kitchen I have inherited in my new place.

I have looked on Ebay and Freecycle, but I was wondering if there are any other sources I could look at.

Cheers.

    Dya know. I read that at first as Kitten, not kitchen. Thought it was a bit weird :o

    Have you tried local councils? Gumtree? Removal firms? Local kitchen fitters? They might keep the removed ones.
    I know my spelling is shocking :eek: It is alot better than it used to be though :rotfl:

    £800 should see you a new one, fitted yourself.

    Even cheaper if you dont want drawers all over the place, then wickes are for you.

    I'd doubt there are few people who carefully pull apart an existing kitchen. I sawed units and worktops in half in order to easily remove them. I was also replacing it for a reason - it was horrible and parts were mouldy! As above, kitchens can be bought very cheap from the likes of Ikea, Wickes and B&Q. If you need to spread out the cost, why not pick up the doors and hinges later?

    There are some really good prices here but you have to put it into perspective really as they are exceptionally expensive kitchens to start with, but you did ask!

    Most are ex-display designer kitchens but you do get the occasional one that is second-hand.

    My kitchen is John Lewis, bought from ebay. It was brand new, only used for a photoshoot with luxury upgraded cabinets with lights and all sorts. It cost me 500 pounds.

    The week before I sold the old kitchen from our barn for over 400 - there are differing degrees of 'bargain' evidently :)
