Title: WTF is this ???
Post by: vwengguy on January 19, 2018, 03:46:56 AM
I know you guys in the states are always bitching about Euro colors... but I have NEVER seen this color here in Europe before.
It’s a 22” Premium or MT lid.

It’s on CL here... just the lid. Seller is asking €25 for it because it has rim rash dent.

No it’s not copper ... seller calls it gold and that’s what I see !

Me thinks it's too light/yellowish to be a true copper. My copper is much deeper and reddish than that. Maybe it's just the picture quality...?

Don't be fooled by the lighting.

I asked the seller and he says it’s gold and not copper ? I don’t know if he really knows his grills like we do ?
Last summer I had a copper MT and it was way more reddish colored than this one... or it’s just a end of the batch Friday copper ?

Maybe it’s just because of the fluorescent lights that I see in the reflection ?

I'd say that is copper. Had one too, and it looks total different in sun, shadow or at artificial light like this one. Additional a pic of mine :(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180119/35778467482469cabfb460fffc1f41ba.jpg)

The rim is not curled up like a WSM.

Yup, that too. And it does seem to be a WSM dome...

Am I drinking too much ?
Or just brain dead ??
Last time I check ... my Euro WSM has a lip that was rolled up and out to fit inside of the mid section to allow the steam and smokey goodness to drip down inside and not on your deck.

Thank you. Unless they've started making colored, taco-handled WSMs. Could be that "Europe is just fucking with us".  ;D ;)

What the F does it matter.   No one is ever going to find a GOLD bowl to match with a GOLD lid.   Now a copper bowl, that's a possibility.
