Title: The German Webers
Post by: Englaender on July 29, 2014, 11:59:23 AM
I thought that i should show you the weber range, that is sold in Germany.

Especially the colors and the Mastertouch-/Special Edition-Kettles are different.

They probably take better care of them than the average US griller.

At least you can buy the 22.5 (57) WSM in Germany. But no Crimson :'( and no Copper :'( (just a Copper Summit)

The germans are very meticulous with the things that they bought themselves. It does not matter whether it is a car or a Weber grill. Unfortunately, you can therefore rarely make such great scores as you on CL.

Nice cars ;) I`m more kind of a Daimler-people... I´ve seen your X5 in a post a while ago. Red, am i right?

You think, stick-driving is european? Almost every sold X5 in Germany should be outfitted with an automatic transmission.
And so are the other premium cars sold here.

TDI is in quite rare in the US, is it? In Germany about 80% of the sold VW are TDI.

I wouldn't say they are rare, but they don't sell a lot of them. Diesel is starting to become more popular here in the US. More and more gas stations are starting to sell it. Some of the American manufactures are producing diesel cars and SUVs now.

I thought the same thing.  Is that a newer color over there?   I would kill for a Bone White and/or Metallic Blue SJ!!
Title: Re: The German Webers

The metallic blue is called "slate blue" and is new to the 2014 range of Weber kettles.

Post the German price list.  Webers sell for a premium in Germany!  :'( 

Due US Customs, we left a red Genesis and a Smokey Joe on the curb in Wiesbaden in 2012.  They were gone in a flash! 

At least we made some folks very happy.

I don´t have a complete price list... but i know Weber Grills are quite expensive in Germany.

For example: a 22.5 OTG, which is in Germany a 57 Mastertouch costs €289, thats about $387.
A Performer Platinum, which is called Performer Deluxe GBS Gourmet costs €599, thats about $802.

Here's a link to an Ivory OTP on Ebay.de

No doubt the seller speaks English and might quote shipping to the Great White North...

Waidmannsheil!  (Good luck hunting)

Don't Obi and Hornbach carry Weber?   :)   

Inside Germany, Bundespost is very affordable.  Mailing anything from Germany to North America can get expensive.   :o 
Title: Re: The German Webers
Post by: Englaender on July 31, 2014, 11:34:01 AM
Obi and Hornbach carry Weber for sure... but all the Hardwarestores (Baumärkte) carry just a small bit of the Weber-range. Not for sure if they carry Smokey Joes.
They have the black 57 Mastertouch and the black 47 OTP for sure...

The Deutsche Post (formerly known as Bundespost) is affordable.
Inside Germany 30kg can be sent for about 14 Euros.

To the US for 20kg about 69 Euros, for maximum 31,5kg about 94 Euros.

I was in the Weber-place to be in my area today.

This weekend my parents celebrate their 60th birthday – I am the man at the kettles and three pulled pork, 60 burgers and a lots of sausages want to be cooked tomorrow.

I just bought some wood chunks, a tool holder and a small gift for my dad...
