Just wondering for those that have one how much the MM is costing?  Just saw an ad for Sams club that they have the MM coming soon for $474  I think its online only

    Don't get it at Sam's Club. It won't have a warranty. They're not an authorized dealer so warranty won't come with it

    I got mine for $550 which included, delivery, assembly, a bag of BGE lump, and a pack of firestarters.

    Sam's warranty may be better than the one from BGE. BGE will not refund your money; only replace the defective part. Sam's will allow you to return it and give a complete refund. There's no reason why a local dealer can't match the price of a MM for $474. There is still plenty of profit at that price point. Sam's is happy at that profit point. BGE is hurting their sales by limiting their sales to mom and pop businesses. As other ceramic manufactures allow the big retailers to sell their product in a competitive market, BGE turns a blind eye. BGE has 5x the number of dealers in my area over the past 10 years. They all sell for MSRP because they don't sell many. The dealers know that discounting is not in their best interest. They rather lose a sale and make it up when they sell an egg at full MSRP.

    $468 is totally reasonable from a dealer.

    Buy it. It will be the least expensive hit in your overall BGE experience. It is everything else that creates Wallet Genocide.
