I suggested he join the forum for some possible help. Maybe he will, maybe not. Sure is a sad site.

Yeah it has been windy. Feel for the guy/girl. Definitely making a mental note not to pull that stunt.Snellville, GA

Looks shady to me.
Snow. In April. In Atlanta.

That picture was obviously not recent. But seems like if he was trying to murder someone wouldn't he try a better tactic than wanting to purchase a bge base and dome? Maybe something that would create some traffic?Snellville, GA

No sugar gliders and soft porn, no help.

Not an umbrella. It is an entire awning. Looks like it was either attached to the leg, or the leg caught the smokeware stone holder thingy.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

That sucks. I think his best bet would be to call bge. Maybe they would work with him on replacement parts at a discounted price. I just can't imagine why anyone would sell a base and some unless they were cracked.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

Canopy collapsing, not a good thing. Poor fellow, hope he can work it out. If that happened to me, I would replace it. Keep the internals.

I'm moving, have a large, new style band-kit, firebox and fire ring new in boxes. I was not going to install them until after the move. So, in fact, I have a top and bottom. The move date is May 26 so I'll be breaking down the egg a couple days before that.New Albany, Ohio

Here is the reply from him. Probably not a murderer. Just a fellow head looking for help.
Jeff, thank you very much and yes the feeling was horrible. I had not considered going to the forum and do not know why because I have been a member for years. I just do not spend any time on it these days. As you suggested, I have already made arrangements to purchase both new. I thought putting a post on Craigslist was a long shot but am glad I did as it resulted in receiving this email from you which will encourage me to visit the forum again.Thanks for the suggestion and for the email.Eggheads are some good folksSnellville, GA -
@THEBuckeye I'll shoot him a link to this thread. @SmokeyPitt I will also tell him to call the mothership to see if they would be willing to help him out a bit. Thanks guys.Snellville, GA

In all honesty, I bet Roswell Hardware would warranty it for him. I messaged him. Worth a shot.

Thanks @Big_Green_Craig. I feel bad for the guy. He's a long time egger. His first egg was red and made of clay if that tells you anything. And he has 4 eggs in total. And for what it's worth I don't know this guy from Adam. Just thought I would try and get him some help from the crew here. I knew there would be some that would try and step up. Thanks to those that have.Snellville, GA

What's his forum handle?"I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

@JohnInCarolina I am really not sure. I wasn't trying to come off like I was asking too many questions or getting to personal. I would hate him to think I was a murderer

Here is a couple pics he sent me of his original that has recently passed away and the one that replaced it. Old school.Snellville, GA

I understand what you are saying John. And I'm sure he wouldn't care or think I had other motives by asking that question. More of a joke than anything. But as you can see, some are quick to jump to their own conclusions even though their thinking seems to be in left field to others.
Anyway, I felt the need to do what little I could for him and hope he gets that egg back up and running. Sounds like he's giving it to his son once repaired as he has plenty of eggs for himself.
Hopefully he will I'll jump back on the forum, I have no idea.Snellville, GA -
So he took his egg out of the table shown? This is strange.
