All - Wanted to get your thoughts on this. I found a guy selling a brand new small with Nest for $350. I told him I am interested. I know this won't come with the warranty... but should I jump on it? I currently have an XL.
Thanks,
John

I think the new cost is $500, I just bought a 4 year old off craigs list for $150 but he could have got more. I got it the first day on CL, he said he had 15 calls the first day. If it is really new that is probably not bad._________________________________________________Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story!Large BGE 2006, Mini Max 2014, 36" Blackstone, Anova Sous Vide

I don't have a small but I would price a new small and nest for comparison as the warranty is a big deal over time since the BGE will likely out-live you:) Since I can't recall new Small BGE prices, once you find that number I would start at around 40% of that value and go from there-I'm sure 40% of X is less than $350. Just an opinion and we all know what those are worth...Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer!

If it is brand new maybe the dude still has the warranty card that you can claim? BGE prices are getting ridonkulous, so as of now $350 is a pretty good deal especially with the nest.BrandonQuad Cities

Fair and worth a roll of the egg dice.
Even if the base cracked it, mine is still fine 1 yrs later. If I bought it I would just avoid running a true clean burn of 800+ degrees. My mini cracked after a clean burn that I know.Seattle, WA -
Last fall I bought a used small for $400, it included nest, cover, woo, platesetter, hi que grate. A new small was $499 and didn't include any accessories.

@Galbi-well played. Wonder if the contest managing entity holds the warranty. Sure sounds like the winner wouldn't have registered it...FWIW-Edit: Remember "It is better to beg forgiveness, than to ask permission!"Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.

if she kicks you out at least you are starting out with something to keep you warm and cook on....could be worse....just need some concrete blocks to make some shelves with if you it the road.

Update: I just sold this small for $520. Wife wasn't convinced it was small enough to take camping... Looks like I am getting the mini-max when it comes out!
