Craigslist Score....Weber Performer??

If I didnt have a performer, I'd hit that. See if the guys would do $80 but to be honest, the cover, the tools and even the chimney all seem to be in good condition. Get that sucker!
 
People are beginning to get a clue what the quality Webers are worth. IMO the Stainless Touch n' Go Performer (pictured in the cl post) is one of the best made. I got mine a few years ago for $40, and I've seen them sell for as much as $200 around here.
Hell yes haggle, but be the first to show up with cash in your hand, and know what your looking for. If the tank is empty, bring your own and test the igniter, a lot of the older Performers have the Quick release valves on non OPD tanks, if they have the refill valve-cool if not your gonna have to replace the tank and add an Acme fitting (@$50++) The chimney new is $15, chuck the utensils!, it has a full fitted cover and heavy duty char baskets.
If I was looking for one and it was something I'd been coveting-$100 isn't a bad deal.
 
Thanks swamp. I didn't even think to test out the ignitor or check for the right valve fitting. Good to know!! As for the wife I think it may be better to ask for forgiveness then to ask for permission. :)
 
Dude, that's one heck of a nice grill. The Weber Silver I have (the basic 22" kettle) goes for $180 new. This one has a lot more bells and whistles. I don't see how you could go wrong at $100.
 
That is a great price... I got mine without accessories for $80. It is a 1998... he wanted $150, and I told him the age of the grill, and offered him $80. he snapped it up. Print out this table at the virtual bullet website to determine the age of the Weber when you got to look at it:

Tell your wife you paid for the accessories (bbq tools, charcoal starter, cover, lp tank) and they threw in the grill.
Looks like a brand new grill.

That's definitely a good score! As said before, haggle, but end up with it.
 
It's a great deal. Check out the price of a new one for comparison. This time of year you are hard pressed to find a bargain. Wait until around Memorial Day when some folks buy new grills.:wink:
 
It will be mine around 6:30pm EST. I have already made arrangements to go and pic it up. I will post some pics once its safely in its new home.
