    I have two eggs, one I bought new and one I bought used. I have had numerous fire rings and the other top part replaced. Never once have I been asked for a receipt or anything. Not certain if I'm fortunate to have a good dealer or what. I would not hesitate to buy another used egg if the price were right.

    She'd love that! Ha!

    new PS from local dealer - $85 otd. Was way more on Amazon. First time for everything, today - local dealer is usually bizarro expensive. 

    Thermo is calibrated. Pizza is ordered. I'm breaking her in with a caveman style brisket (no electronics). Let's see how this SINGLE function metal top works! :)
    Dang saved a ton for the medium and got ripped for the PS!  I didn't give but about $45 for my Lg PS. 

    I need to get a indirect setup for my medium, so you're doing better than me.  
    I need you guys to show me how that woo thing works...

    Q the "but, what about the warranty?" dillholes. 
    Glad ya were able to score this Damien. 
    One cracked base and he didn't save anything and has a unwarrantied egg at full price. I wouldn't have paid $200 for this but I would never buy another used egg anyways. In the last 10 years I have had between $1000 and $1500 in cracked parts and finally got rid of my used eggs and got all new ones with warranties. Congrats to the OP and I hope you can get that receipt.
    Haters gotta hate, and I feel like you're jinxing me, Lit - but I will be hoping for a receipt and some mothership love, you are correct....

    Thanks! I don't even have a dome thermo on the large any more. This medium came with a card instructing how to drill a hole for the thermometer lol. Makes it really easy to see out the window. 

    The cut is packer trimmed both muscles excell.

    Embarrassed to say, while we went to soccer the egg went out. Maybe I shut it too far down. I'm used to the large surviving that little amount of air. No harm done and well outside any danger zones, but I've never restarted an egg before, that I can remember. Went ahead and threw in some more charcoal while I was at it. 

    Might not have been all the way out, but 150* is too low, regardless.

    I noticed that cooking on Matt's old medium at Butt Blast. It needed a lot more air than my new medium does.
