Thinking of selling my small

I'm thinking of selling my small but I'm not sure what it would be worth. When selling I would include the platesetter and kick ash basket. Its always been garage kept and is in very good condition. Please let me know if any of you have experience with this. Thanks!

Might be interested. Let me know the price and location and might buy and come and pick up.

Location is always important unless you are going to ship.Thank you,DarianGalveston Texas

It is yours so do with it as you wish...BUT WHY SELL it? Of my eggs my Small is my workhorse egg. Anything I or others might help you with some apparent problem you have with it?

What part?

I love the grill but my family is growing and I need some more space.

If I was back in Metamora. Small seems like a fun size.They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That's against their interests. - George Carlin

Keep the Small and add a larger egg. The Small comes in handy for quick cooks during the week. Oh, and stop after the second egg, or don't.They/Them

Gotta echo @dmw on his thoughts. If you are like the rest of us sick individuals you will want a second shortly after buying the bigger grill. Hang onto the small, it's a workhorse of an egg.

The problem with selling a BGE is that it's always worth so much more to the original buyer because of the warranty. If I ever add a second BGE it would definitely be a small. Good luck whatever you decide.Stillwater, MN

Good advice above. Regarding used BGE's, a rule of thumb, without the warranty start at around 50% of retail for the market value. So now you know the ball-park range. You may do better with Craigslist if someone who is new to BGE's wants to pick it up. FWIW-Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

2nd egg and keep small. You'll gain nothing of value by selling it. If you're lucky you may get 1/2 of market value...that's if you're lucky.LBGE 2013 & MM 2014Die Hard HUSKER & BRONCO FANFlying Low & Slow in "Da Burg" FL

I hated my small egg and sold it after a few months. It was tough to bring up to temp and maintain temp. Perhaps operator error?

Price is determined by location, as other's have said. Mine was sold in Phx, and I got 400 for it. Included a plate setter, and nest. Excellent shape.
Just to add a counterpoint to those giving love to the small. I didn't like mine at all - it felt very cramped. Sold it within weeks of buying it (used). Medium is the smallest I'll go with an egg. I realize that I'm in the minority on this.

Its an airflow issue. I know what I am doing with my eggs, of the 6 I have, my small is a dog, it doesnt like to run. I changed that last month with a kick ash basket for a mini max, and a hi que grate for a large. It can breathe now and running at temps like the others is no problem. What do I use it for? Yesterday it was for hot dogs cooked at 375. Its a better egg now that I know I can get it hot, but I use it for lower temp stuff anyway. -

I'll probably haul it to the Dells next month, maybe that will light a fire again. It's my lil' GA peach though, I'll never sell, likely give it to my son down the road with a large. Then his a $$ can haul that heavy peach to our gatherings......smarter, not harder. LolBrandonQuad Cities

I thought the MM had a larger fire grate then the small? Otherwise they are similar.

FWIW the draft door is the same size so the "intake" is the same with the dome closed.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg. -
