OT - How far away is your BGE dealer?

Langner91

I live 12 blocks from my dealer's store. 

I work about the same distance from a second dealer.

My sister can hit @pgprescott 's shop with a stone from her house.  She can smell the food cooking when he does Demos!

There are two more Green Egg stores along your route. One on hillsborough and memorial and one in Oldsmar across from Chilis.

I've been to the one in Oldsmar... to get a Turkey Cannon last November. I didn't know about that other one. This area is just silly with BGE dealers. I see over twenty within 15 miles of my office.

bluebird66

40 miles.

I'm lucky.....  I drive within 5 miles of HQ, and drive by at least 8 dealers between north and south sides of Atlanta on a daily basis.  Got a fire ring that cracked a few weeks ago, so I'll be heading to Roswell Hardware to get it replaced in the next year or two.....

For us GA people egg dealers are all over the place. On my under 15 mile trip to work I could veer off path in either direction and stop by a good 10 dealers. Leonard's meat market is the closest not sure exactly but less than 2 miles from home. 

Navigator

About 50 miles but they stock next to nothing. Have to go about 80 miles to get to a store with some product on hand.

5 miles from my local Ace Hardware and 25 miles from the mothership. We live on the edge of suburbia and the rural country. I bought my large at the mothership because I really liked the sales guy there, who is no longer there now. I bought my MM from an eggfest in north GA. I buy all my accessories and lump from the local Ace Hardware. There is a major egghead that works there and when I go in to buy lump we talk cooking for at least 30 min. It's also good because SWMBO knows him too and can just ask him "what does ksmyrl need now" when shopping for gifts and he always hooks me up.

Two dealers close to me. One less than 10 mins away that has all the accessories you would need and the high end tables that I can't afford. Really nice granite and stainless. The second is less than a half hour away that has all the "stuff" you need and both are very friendly and professional.

300miles and in a different country, but saved $800 on original purchase of a large

I thought I had it bad having to cross a border! About 30 miles where I buy and get great warranty service, Innovations in Bellingham WA. I saved almost $400 on the MBGE and other stuff when I bought.

@ksmyrl - you near Between, GA....???  I just noticed your signature line and that's what it looks like you are hinting at!  I drive thru there going to UGA games!

20.1482345 miles away.  That's 32.4254403 kilometers for you Canukistanians.  17.50833709674 nautical miles if we flood and I have to boat there.

fishlessman

morrobayrich

DaveRichardson

@ksmyrl - We were just talking about Maxey Price Chevy today....  Trying to give directions and that's the only place that I could remember in Loganville!!!

If you use the boat you can go in a straight line you know, you do not have to follow the roads......

From Noodleville central just north of Toronto there are 6 dealers ranging as close as 1 - 10 miles away.  So I'm sure if I get a hairy assed **** attitude from the dealer I bought from I can swing something elsewhere without burning too much gas

ksmyrl

@daverichards  that's a shame. All we are known for is Maximum Price Chevy (not a typo). Another landmark would be, well, okay...use Maxi Price. 

northGAcock

closest is 7 miles....but I bought from dealer 85 miles away.....they carry Rockwood if that tells you something.

JohnnyTarheel

I am not the only one surprised your wife calls you your egg forum handle.

Crawling distance. Thank all that is holy, because on weekends, walking mat be a challenge.

EggHeadDad

Mine is in Springfield, VA about 6 miles from here but now I deal with the Dizzy Pig in Manassas, VA . . . great team!

Toxarch

I use the dealer 20 miles away. There's a hunting store 8 miles away that is a dealer but they are expensive on everything hunting and fishing related so I never go in there.

Begger

Nearest Egg Dealer is maybe 3 to 5 miles.   tops.
The place I bought, is about 12 to 14 miles each way and worth the trip.   Best guys around and ALWAYS cooking something at the store.
