Ok, so just noticed that the top of my new egg is not aligned with the bottom. I'm afraid it's going to drive me crazy, plus when I finally get a table, it won't be right. Anybody have a quick fix for this?

Don't know about a quick fix-but
· Following is a good link for explanation about addressing all types of alignment issues with the Kamado/BGE; and there are several more via Google-may help you out- Good luck-
Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. -
Interesting video! My issue is different. The lid is turned more to the right. So the handle is not centered over the air vent at the bottom. Wondering if i loosen the screws for the bands on the lid and base and just turn the lid and bands to align it properly, or do I have to completely take it apart.

Just don't let the tension on the hinge get you, you may have it fixed by now. Got a nifty trick for taking the springs off the hinges if needed.

I have not had a chance to mess with it yet, but I saved the spring holders. I'm thinking if I take the hinge off, and loosen the bottom strap, I should be able to line it all up.

Ok, got it aligned, did not have to mess with the springs at all. I just loosened the bands and turned it. Ready for action!
