Greetings friends,
Edit - here's his CL ad in case any of you are close...
theres a guy almost two hours away selling this egg for $200. I might be able to talk him down a bit. What do you think?
He says cooked on only twice... I noticed Old hinges - what does that mean? He says 18" diameter.
Thanks! Hope you're all well!

Looks almost new- it's the old handle and old hinges so it could likely be the older ceramic that isn't capable for high heat (pizza). But sure someone will be along soon that knows for sure. Price is awesome and unit looks basically perfect- I would go for it.

I would be ALL OVER THAT! even with the two hour drive and the old hinges. The older ceramics that can't take the heat would be the terracotta orange color.

That band will drive you crazy so figure $75 more for a new band then no warranty.

Strap it in the front seat like @tarheelmatt

If he's saying it's 18" across from side to side, not the grate, what size does that make this?
edit - did my own lazy leg work and it might be a medium. Still a good deal? i think so...Large BGE and Medium BGE

Looks like a large at first glance. I'd imagine 18" is cooking grid diameter not ceramic egg exterior.LBGE 2013 & MM 2014Die Hard HUSKER & BRONCO FANFlying Low & Slow in "Da Burg" FL

My dad has one identical to that......old hinges, black draft door, orange inside, etc. It's over 20 years old and we cooked PLENTY of pizzas on it. Never had a problem with clean burns either.

Should that era nest have cross-pieces that run across the bottom (just above the wheels), similar to the modern version?LBGE - St. Louis, MO; MM & LBGE - around 8100' somewhere in the CO Front Range

If I can get a medium in my work car (Toyota Corolla) you shouldn't have an issue. Put in the front seat and buckle it in!
