    Looks like he has a gasser to the left of the egg in the first pic. Hopefully that's just resting there :) Good catch though! Definitely something the buyer should ask about.

    Thats a very good price. Platesetter looks new.
    I would even feel safe after a long clean burn if lighter fluid was used in the past.

    I zoomed in trying to figure out if that is lighter fluid.  Suspicious.

    Wow that is a steal. Nice find @SGrabs33 hopefully someone from the forum snags it. If I didn't care about warranty I'd be on my way to get it.

    looks like another non-egger.  I've bought/sold quite a few eggs.  Not once did I meet anyone who "gets it".  Every one of them used the stock egg as it sits, cooking direct.  

    It seems there are serious forum type eggers, and then people who happen to have purchased a ceramic grill.  Very different crowds.

    I want and more than that need this one. I'm cooking regularly for my church life group. I live 2 hours away in Raleigh so I'm hopeful to hear from someone myself.

    Still no response, I am assuming this is to good to be true.  We just started the dave ramsey class so I was trying to squeeze this in before we got to the part about responsible spending....

    i would be curious to know what the burn off is for lighter fluid.

    I know its petroleum based, but would not several pizza cooks leach and burn off anything which as soaked onto the ceramic.

    And even of it did not get out all of it, would the residue which is left be so deep within the ceramic material as to not contaminate the food?

    my guess, after receiving ~30,000 e-mails in the first 10 minutes of the post, he is going to rethink the price...

    Good luck with that. My wife and I just finished the course and believe me if this wasn't being considered as a purchase for our life group functions there's no way I'd be even considering it.  Per my wife  LOL

       BTW I've not  heard anything from the seller either

    Whoo Hoo!  Guy called me back just now and said to pick it up.  Thought for sure it was a scam, but said he has been busy. Said I was the first on his voicemail so it was mine. I thought for sure he'd not take $425 that I offered, and I be damned if he took it.  

    I'm leaving work at noon to head over and pick it up.  

    Maybe changing my name to tripleEgger .
