Don't need to spend it right now but wife is pushing me to look into it.thinking I could cut a hole for the mini above the compartment and still use it for smaller tools.

    You could just set the mini on top of it, or on a table next to it.  Sounds like a good deal, especially if he budges a bit on the price.

    That's a pretty good deal. Also consider you're saving yourself sales tax from a store. Id offer $1000 cash

    I agree, it is a pretty good deal.  Nice looking table too.  If you like it and have the money, I would go for it.  It would be nice to talk him down $100.

    Seems like a good deal.  Why cut a hole for the mini?  I would just set it on top in it's stand.

    Looks nice.  I'd rather have the real estate (work surface) than the mini on it.  Put the mini on the side, maybe elevate it with something.

    I have looked into it, He will take $1k I dont have a truck and he is 25 mins away. I would need a UHAUL truck rental for 30 miles or so. Sounds like he is discounting about $300 - $400  or so in what his total cost was so not sure its the deal of the century. Still thinking about it, can always wait get a demo @ eggfest and have a table built to my liking.

    If it were in Canada it would be the deal of the century, specially with CDN dollar at $1.02 US

    It doesn't seem like that great a deal to me...depending on what you value that table at.  Keep in mind, 2nd hand means no warranty coverage from BGE.  Seems like for not that much more, you could get it from a dealer.  I fit a LBGE and table of similar (maybe a little smaller) size in the back of a RAV4 with the back seats folded flat.  Do you really have to rent a truck?
  • Too pricey.  For that kind of money, you're better off getting a new one with a warranty albeit with less accessories.  Sweet looking table, though.

  • I bought a Large with , platesetter, rib rack ,table and cover a couple of months ago and it cost me a little over $1600. And the table is not nearly that nice, it was bought from a dealer so I do have warranty. Just in case you need a price perspective !

    I bought a new large from the store in Atlanta and built my own table with cypress from a small lumberyard near me. I got a great deal on the wood and have about $1100 in everything.
