Been looking for one, finally went to my dealer and he had none in stock but could order one for me. Well we checked on the price to write up the order and he informed me that BGE had a price increase on their products. He gave me the current price and we both just about fell on the floor. The current price for the mini is now $379.00. Well needless to say I was not wanting a mini that bad and we both could not believe that the price had gone up that much. Anyway, I came back home and just decided to check ebay and found one there for a current bid of $225.00 and bid $260.00 on it. It was brand new in the box (never opened) and included a BGE bag of charcoal, ash tool, grid lifter, and the Base that is used for the chimenia and mini. It was a pick up item only and was about 60 miles from my home. I was very surprised that my bid was the highest and that I now own a mini! This was just to good to be true. Picked it up today, put it together and it is just beautiful. The seller had won the package in a golf outing last fall and was not into grilling or the BGE. Now the question is, What to cook on it because it is just so small. I think this is going to be a learning experience. Just doesn't seem to hold much charcoal. Any advice? :cheer:

The Mini is a fantastic steak searing machine!

you can do most anything on a mini
Plus, it fits in my fireplace so I can cook most things all winter long without freezing my butt off!!
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

If you look on the BGE homepage, it states that all internet sales void the warranty.
anything I need-warrantee or no- my dealer charges S&H on. that drives up the price of heavy stuff substantially! (that reminds me- I need a new platesetter!)
Hey, Enjoy the mini! Part of the fun is the challenge of cooking on a small cooker. You should get the mini kim woo ring (or whatever it's called)or buy an extra grid and build yourself a raised grid for the little guy. I do most of my Mini cooks on the raised grid.
