    I think that is a mini, not a small...

    That thing is not just small, it is mini. 

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    You know the way you are going and have embraced the egg lifestyle, in another year or two you will have one of each, so to quote Warren Miller, "If you don't do it this year you will be one year older when you do".
    You know you want it, go get it.

    At least where I live the mini is $400 nowadays so IMHO $270 is still a tad high for no warranty. Amazing that when I bought my mini it was only $195 because that size was still thought of as a novelty and the popularity had not yet taken off. Elsewhere the mini has a cult like following!

    Skiddy, are you a big skier?

    henapple, that is 4 dollars less than I paid for my mini brand new. I'd take it for 200.

    It is a mini... I misread the ad. Texted him back... He let me know quickly I couldn't find one for under $300. So, still hunting.

    I bought a new mini @ the N. GA Eggfest for $300. The problem with that mini is the new eggcessories won't fit that includes the platesetter or the mini woo, since the grid is only 9" plus no warranty.

    Why no warranty, Hic?  Eggs from 'fests have a warranty, afaik.

    I just pulled the trigger on a 1 year old small. $400, comes with platesetter, nest and woo. While more than I really wanted to spend, espeically with no warranty, I pulled the trigger after I called the dealer and they priced me a new small for $475, Add a nest for $125, and then online priced a woo at $60 & Platesetter at $55, figured taxes $66 for a grand total of $880.00.. I suddenly felt $400 wasn't so bad. I had not wanted to spend more than $300 but I figure it's in great shape and has the accessories I would end up buying anyway so felt it was close. Call me crazy.. maybe I overpaid a bit but it's what we eggers tend to do on this hobby!

    Wow!  I bought my small brand new with warranty for about $550, stand included.  You've got some high prices in your neck of the woods.

    I just bought a new small with nest and shelves for $499. It did take me awhile to find that deal though.
