I worked n a lawn mower engine awhile back, seems the carb float had stuck and the
engine crank case had filled up with gas, I drained everything, refilled the oil, gas etc. cleaned the carb and checked the float (which was the problem) It started right up and still runs good. Also the electric starter motor could be jammed there are quite a few things that could cause the problem you describe. I would take the time to give it a good check over before declaring it dead in the water. Could be something really simple and either free or cheap to fix..
