Title: I think I have a problem.
Post by: avega2792 on August 26, 2019, 02:58:30 PM
I’ve already acquired 4 kettles since the end of July. I just picked up a nice kettle today and just made arrangements for another one! I can’t even count them in my head anymore, I might need a calculator at the rate things are going.

I justify it because of parts lol

I got 3 grills in about 3 weeks. Don’t need anything else but still looking in case I find something cheap. [emoji23]

Well I wasn’t really trying to acquire parts donors, but they follow me home like stray dogs!

   That's about one kettle a week you're doing great. Once you figure out whether you like the better and easier to get colors of the old versus the new, the ease of cooking and cleaning of the new versus the old that should temper your buying. I know it has for me.

@JEBIV, It's never a problem for you. I may be 4 days late, a belated Happy Birthday, Joe! Hope you had a wonderful day, and have many more! Sorry for hijacking the thread.

Happy late b-day Joe!

My wife recently pointed out that I have bought over 10 Weber kettles this year... 

My only defense was that this kettle or two was for parts, that kettle is worth a lot more, and etc.

Her minimalist mindset didn't quite register my reasoning.  I have gotten rid of a few since then, but only because I need more space in case something else comes along haha.

I have three 22" and two 18" kettles, one Smokey Joe, along with two 18" WSMs. I see no problem as long as you don't run out of charcoal and storage area... :-)

I missed out on a fantastic deal on a 26er this past weekend and I quoted your signature to my wife, she chuckled of course. Well lo and behold I may just be getting a 26er very soon, so like your sig says I might stop buying kettles... so often. Just as well, but I recently took a liking to WSMs so I might switch over to WSM collecting ;)

I’ll have to take a family pic, but I think I have 6 kettles, 3 Genesis gassers, 1 and GGA.

My first heartbreaker was a 30$ older 26" I missed by 5 minutes at an estate sale. We call it the "weber incident" at my house.  :'(

In July I bought an AA 18.5 WSM a B code kettle and a 1975 kettle at 3 separate places for a grand total of 75$. So I can't complain too much.

I love the WSM I've used it almost every weekend since.

I Still check FB marketplace and craigslist like a fiend for my holy grail. ;D

Good luck!
