So, remember when @Scottborasjr posted a few days ago about someone looking for a used large? He said a friend of his was looking to sell his and a bunch of accessories for $600. Too good to be true, right?
WRONG!
Good grief, what a deal. I drove to Lincoln after work with six hundo in in hand, and this is what I came home with:
1 large egg
nest
mates
ceramic cap
daisy wheel
platesetter
stainless grate
cast iron grate
pizza stone
clean out tool
grate lifter
vinyl cover
4.5 bags of Royal Oak lump
and one sweet orange Home Depot bucket full of hickory chunks.
The seller does competition BBQ, and had several stick burners when I pulled into his driveway. I figured he treated his equipment nicely, and likely babied his Egg. Sure enough, it was pristine.
So, I'm officially a two-Egg owner. Happy birthday to me. Happy Fathers Day to me. Congrats to me on the new job. (the same one I skipped Salado for so I could stay here and interview). My wife is not only okay with the new Egg, she's supportive of it. The only requirement is a couple dinner parties this summer on our patio.
HELL YES.
It's been a good day.

Cool! Congrats on the new egg.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

So glad it worked out for both @SaltySam and Mike (the seller). Mike is a great guy and when he asked me if I knew anyone that would give a egg a good home I knew I'd be able to find some one here.I raise my kids, cook and golf. When work gets in the way I'm pissed, I'm pissed off 48 weeks a year.Inbetween Iowa and Colorado, not close to anything remotely entertaining outside of football season.

I know that this isn't a retail site, but I'm pretty sure if anyone in the eastern NE western Iowa area is interested in a stick burner the same man would be willing to talk. Not going to post another thread because I don't want to be labeled as a troll......I raise my kids, cook and golf.
