Found a listing for a brand new Mini for $100 .. could not believe what I was seeing .. so immediately called and drove 32 miles to pick this up.
Listing:
Found out that the guy owned a pool store and this was a floor demo as the store is closing down. He also had a Large BGE that someone just bought before me for $500.
Came with everything new .. don't know which year this is from .. but for $100 I am okay with it :-)

Congrats! But I second the strong suggestion to ditch that old stand due to the damage and fire potential for the new style, OR just revert to 3 ceramic feet to set it on.Re-gasketing America one yard at a time.

1 foot? LOL that will be one tipsy egg! Don't go get ripped by trying to buy 2 more original green feet as people are selling them for crazy prices! Go back and ask that guy if they have anymore. Dealers who would sell nests would throw those feet in the trash! OTOH just save yourself money and time if the guy doesn't have any and just buy 3 ceramic pot feet from any nursery. They are VERY common and cheap!Re-gasketing America one yard at a time. -
I scored one a new one a couple weeks ago for $200.00 and I was doing back flips. You're going to love it. Very versatile and very portable. I've had mine to the beach and on the boat already...The Gator Nation, Central FloridaLARGE & MINI Life is good...GO GATORS!!!

WOW is that a deal! I paid $400+ for my Mini (but still love, love, LOVE it!)
Now if I could only find a table /stand to put it on, other than my patio table..

Nice. Now tonight give that stand to your wife to hold flower pots in. Get a new style nest. Also you are going to have an odd size grid so be careful when ordering things like a Mini Woo.Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

Picking up a mini with nest and plate setter myself tomorrow. New in unopened box. 300 bucks. Not quite as good of a deal as yours. But I jumped on it nonetheless.

Mickey sells them for $300 w/ nest at Salado so I say it's a pretty good deal. If it's CL, offer $225 and maybe they will end up letting it go for $250.SGH said:Is that a good deal or no?^^^^^^^^^^^

@cazzy
It's a person my wife knows through work. It's still in the box unopened. Has the nest and says he has a mini plate setter. I have never personally seen one myself. My wife wants it so I guess I have no choice in the matter. Tomorrow we will own a mini. I'm going to have to do a post about eating crow. I said I would never own anything smaller than a large. Now I'm getting a mini. Having to eat my own words or crow if you will. Oh well. I will take it like a man!Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

No...but one is in my future. I have a small, so the mini max will have to be awesome sauce to win over the mini. I'll know by Salado.SGH said:@cazzy

@Mickey is the man to talk to about the Mini. He would get rid of his larges before he'd part with his minis.Just a hack that makes some $hitty BBQ.... -

I always said the same thing. I couldn't see a use. My wife wants it so it's a done deal. She is making me eat my own words. Oh well. Can't win them all. Especially against the wife!Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

@bearBGE
I hear ya brother. I don't argue with the wife to much. She pretty much let's me buy things "at will" and without question so I try to return the favor in kind. It keeps me in her good graces when she gets to spend money!Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.
