I own a large and have been itching for a small or mini. Found a med, 2 yrs old, used maybe 5x. Gasket looks new. Has a plate setter, vrack, and pizza stone. Asking $500 ( I knew that was nuts). I said I didn't need nest or cover. Now we're at $375... Any thoughts. Thanks

    I just paid $599 for med, nest, bag of lump, grill picker upper. Sounds good w/eggessories if truely in new condition. The eggessories you listed without the nest are approx $100. Wonder why they are selling such an unused egg? Must not have caught the bug...too bad.

    She said her husband used it maybe 5x and it just sits covered outside. She says they are moving and it's time to go. My wife will prob shoot me.

    I don't use the daisy wheel anyway.

    I use it on butts and ribs. Usually under 300 degrees, haven't tried not using it.

    That's what I'm thinking. I'll post the results of this deal as they unfold.

    Sounds like a great deal to me. You can always pick up a daisy wheel later if you really want one.

    I think a lot of people get Eggs and don't put in the time to learn how to use them properly and just let them sit there. Personally, I'm glad they are selling it... at least that way someone is going to appreciate what they have!

    The lady emailed me back yest and said she had the daisy wheel, I replied and said I'll call you this afternoon to set a time to go get. I went and got the loot and called around 3:30 and she said she had someone coming to look at it and would let me know if she still had it. I've heard nothing, and got a pocket full of loot.

    I had told the wife about findinging a deal on the Egg, and she wasn't all that thrilled and then I mentioned how she gets to reap the benefits of it versus a new gun I could go and purchase. She said "true".

    I would really like to find a small Egg, so the hunt continues.
