Heineken Humpty
Of course I'm speculating, he could have been doing layups!
In hindsight I wish I had had what was left sent out to OZ cause the base and lid seems to be okay.
Happened last September and Mini Max's had unicorn status at that stage.
Unfortunately, wasn't insured for the domestic US leg......one of those lessons you pay for with cash!

Yikes. It's not a good day for egg owners going humpty. The only people smiling on these threads are the manufactures of high temp furnace cement.2x Kamado Joe Big Joes + Cyber Q Wifi + Themapen - Pizza Steel + BGE Paella Pan + BGE Ash Tools + Woo2 + Open Bar Fire Ring

Aussie, I'm sure you are nowhere near the states. Would that be a safe guess? I could use a new mini base. I got a free one recently that is similar to yours....

I didn't think to get it insured, it wasn't an option in the checkout process, so I wore it. Had considered reversing the payment though paypal, but didn't want to penalize someone trying to help me out.

UPS would not have honored insurance. We ship 10 to 15 packages a day with them and insured each shipment up til a couple of months ago. NEVER did they ever honor a claim. Biggest copout was saying "improper packaging" even when we double box and use a foam machine. Biggest ripoff of all ltimes.

That sucks! I feel for you. Let us know if you do decide to part it out. I'd be interested in the band"The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

Wow, how much was shipping? Seems like you could have at least gotten the grid, base, heineken label and cap.They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That's against their interests. - George Carlin

Cost me $465.00 for the egg and domestic shipping to my US 'mail box' and from memory would have cost almost $300 to ship to Aus, so at the time decided not to throw good money after bad.
The people who run'my us mailbox service' deposed of the items. -
Man, that really blows. I would have saved what was salvageable (especially the metal parts ) and tried to cobble something together out of flower pots or such.
What a bummer.
