That looks like a Genesis Silver B. I have one like that, but without the fancy doors.

For $200, if well maintained, pretty good deal. The Genesis Silvers are decent gas grills. Throw in an AMNTS and you've got yourself a pinch-hit smoker.

I might make a 150 offer what do yall think?

Fair bet you could get it for that. It's a moving sale -- he'll be motivated to get rid of it.

It's not a Genesis, it's a Spirit series, most likely a Spirit E-310. Nice grill, about $400 when new, but made overseas not in the US like the Genesis series.

$150 is probably a fair price.

A-Maze-N Tube Smoker. A tube you can load with pellets, fire up, and place on your grill grates. Works great to add a bit of smoke flavor to a gas grill.

You sure? I looked up the Spirit series, and not sure that's a match. Everything about it is identical to my Silver B except for the doors.

It says Spirit right on the front.

It's an older model Spirit E-310...

It doesn't have the drop down table, and the Genesis series have never been labeled with Spirit on the front of the grill :-D

This is a little farther from me but this seems the better deal?

Yup, definitely says Spirit on there. Never knew the spirits were foreign made Silver clones.

Since that one was posted 11 days ago, bet you can definitely get it for a lowball price.

So even though the first one I posted was not the best 150 is still a good deal?

It's a fair price. The second one for $150 or less would be a good deal if everything is in good condition. The things to look at in either case are the grates, flavorizer bars, burners tubes and the bottom half of the body. Those are the things that typically need replacing after a while. My Genesis Gold B lasted about 15 years before it needed any work.

Honestly I would purchase the second one you posted, much better deal IMO. It'll make a great chimney starter which is all I use my gasser for :wink:

It's an E-310 but I believe your pricing is off a bit. The Spirit E-210 2 burner was $400, the E-310 was $500+

Haven't looked at the other one posted yet, but the price for this one is fair IF it's in amazingly good shape (specifically, the burners, grates and flavorizers) and if there's absolutely no rust. Also, the cover needs to be in good condition and not dry rotted. That alone costs $50 new.

If under the hood is in good shape, that one is a good deal. Run over quick and try to keep from grinning too much. If you can get it for less, even better :lol: BTW, I'm pretty sure it's wrongly identified as a Genesis Gold though. I think it's actually a Genesis Silver C. The "Gold" models had stainless hoods.
