Canadian mini max half price.
I have found one through a friend of a friend and he's asking $450 still in the box. Of course this will have zero warranty.
I have a large and a mini already, I got the mini 1 year before the max came out. I wouldn't have paid that price for a mini anyway so I can't really complain. Now that I can get one for a decent price I'm considering it.
Am i nuts to hint that $450 is still to much for a non warrantied egg? What's a decent price for it.. $300? $350? Less?
What at say you?

Depends on how much you want it! If you want it and can afford it, go for it. Sounds like a good price considering what the retail price is in Canada. For me, the large and mini combo give me exactly what I need for now. But if I were to be given a mini max or got a great deal on one, I'd prolly hop on it.

Where are you that you see that price new? In alberta they are between 750 and 860 before taxes. To me $400 seems fair for a minimax. Depending on why they have it new in a box you may be able to get warranty. If you look at the canadian website there are a few options to choose from when filling out your warranty. If it's never been registered and you know where it's purchased you could revister it as a gift. If it was won in a draw you could probably register it that way.

Is it an option to cross the border and buy one with a warranty?

No receipt as it was a wedding gift.
I just googled the price from threads here. It was late Sunday so I couldn't call a local dealer. -
My Ace Hardware just started to carry BGE, and the MM is going for $599 with "everything". I assume this means the platesetter, but I didn't ask for details.
My dealer is located roughly 10 miles south of Pittsburgh Pa.
Not it that my location helps you at all, but thought I'd offer you a comparable price. I think $450 is a deal, why not call the Mothership and explain "You" got it as a wedding gift with no receipt. Perhaps they'll honor it since it's still in the box?!Large BGE - McDonald, PA -
Fair price, buy it.

Since its new and unused, that's a 40% haircut for not having a warranty. Seems worth it.

Well, I was waiting to hear back from Bruce at BGE and as of this typing its been 2 days. Sad to report the MM got sold.

@hondabbq that's too bad. For you I think it was a "want" not a "need" so you wanted everything (MM+ guaranteed warranty) for a steal of a deal. Somebody else maybe with more need took the deal...
I got a new unused small last year that was a raffle prize win for a good price (not even as good as your MM deal) and was able to just go online and register the warranty. I'll fight hard if I get any flack when/if I ever need warranty parts - I mean come on - A Canadian sold unit, from a Canadian store, with only one warranty registration - what could they possibly find wrong with that to deny the claim?
P.S. - I think you'll kick yourself a little that you didn't go for it!

Your right it was a want not a need. I have a large and a mini. I would have just sold the mini to my sous chef who wants one.
I guess I wanted to drink the koolaid too, but I don't want to drink at full price or without warranty.
-
@hondabbq - tell your sous-chef to sign up for the Stihl.ca BGE giveaway. They are giving away a mini a month all year and a LBGE at the end of the year.

You can't get Joe Jr. for that low up here either, so if you are cool with no warranty then go for it.Large BGEBBQ Guru DigiQ IIMartensville, Saskatchewan Canada

Finally got an email reply from BGE. A little late. Kind of a snotty response if you ask me.
