Just saw this BGE for sale here in NoVa. This thing looks ROUGH!

Mud Pig

Wow, that is definitely a fixer upper. The top cap looks busted and I'm sure the innards aren't much better. I'll give the guy $50 for it.

WhackMaster719

Tell me about it. It looks like the hinge is busted or gone... I sent him an email to find out what kind of shape it is really in. I'm thinking his $1 might to be too far off...

Photo Egg

This Egg would make "rough" look good...
Why not take 15 minutes to clean it up a little?
$450.00 is nuts.

Looks like he pulled it out of the bottom of the lake!

Humphrey Chimpden Earwicker

it's an old earthenware one from the looks of it.
and the guy calls the lump "briquettes"... hmm. yeah, right


i think he has an old model he never uses, and thinks he can upsell. no person cooking on THAT would spend the premium for BGE lump. hahaha

Yepper, that looks purty ruff! He'll be waiting fer a while to get 450 fer it!!!

"A free jumbo bag of smoking briquets?"

Wait... what?

Just sent him an e-mail asking if he is nuts!!!! :laugh:

Absolutely

If that sells I'm going thru my garage.

Looks like he pulled that thing off the Titanic... in which case $450 is probably a reasonable price for a historic artifact.

RRP

any idiot willing to pay $450 for that surely will want to buy this mighty fine abandoned table I recognized at a former BGE dealer's nursery.

Ron,, thats in better shape than mine was




But still easier to restore than that egg

Eggs show up fairly often on CL. Some are better deals than others.

Did you just do a Google search to get this list or is there something within Craigslist that allows you to search multiple Craigslist sites at once?

Craiglook.com

IMF

that might be the best thing ever invented (except for maybe the kamado). thanks!

No problem. I'm glad I could help.

I've found it extremely useful when buying a car. I managed to find one about 150 miles away - I jumped on a train and bought it the next day. Especially good if you live in NY state.

Yep, I live in central Florida and there are 20 different CL pages in FL... so anytime you want to look for an egg, or anything else, you have to search tons of different CL sites - very annoying and time consuming. But not anymore :cheer:

Better living through technology!

Now I should describe the "permutation method" in priceline and you'll be king (actually just google it).

Well, there is a fairly strong correlation between geographical area and Egg prices. For instance, West coast is much more expensive than East coast. I paid $840 for my second egg (including goodies - which was a good deal where I live). Egg fest eggs with only stand go for 700 in SoCal.
