This conversation got very sciencey.

Perhaps I'm just being suspicious after reading the reviews, and seeing the price for one grill is 19.99, two is 76.27, and three is 19.99. The option for two is the only one that sounds plausible for a decent stainless grill. What if the other two options are to unload their stock of cheap plated grills that are mentioned several times in the reviews?

On the other hand, if it works out for you fellas, good enough.

7436 is plated not stainless. 

Price is great if they are actually Weber and ship.

I just ordered some from Amazon which sent me a message that they have been shipped.  I guess I should be getting 3 new grates made of steel perhaps stainless.  8)

My guess is that they are 7436 Weber grates that were returns or something when reading the seller profile-

"Albany Tool Co. is a new company located in Albany, NY. We are a trading orientated company that revolves around buying cheap from stores like Home Depot, Amazon.com, eBay.com and such selling platform and reselling at discounted prices!"

So where they said stainless I don't think that is the case at all because if I'm right it's the 7436 Weber Hinged Grate.

I'm willing to take a shot for under $7 each.   If they are somehow not that and are inferior (which I doubt to be the case) I'll have 3 shiny grates that will go on Kettles that get flipped when I need to thin the herd.  Being able to take photos with new shiny grates for a Craigslist ad will more than likely return more than the $7 investment.

Thanks for the confirmation @captjoe06

Order placed. Fingers crossed. I've been using the gourmet grates a lot lately, and it will be nice not to deal with the center section.

The flip up grates should just be the standard Weber grate.

I've never used a gourmet grate but always suspected the center section would be more of an annoyance on most of my cooks.  This confirms that.  I still might get one at some point for use with a wok or doing chicken wings.  Although I will now have 4 sacrificial standard grates to work with.

Anyone have any ideas on what to do with all these left over standard grates a lot of us are going to have now?

@HoosierKettle , I recommend making some elevated grates, or half grates.
An angle grinder with a cut-off wheel … some nuts and bolts.  Or, weld some legs on if you can.
I hope to do-up some in the spring maybe.  Have lots of extra grates around from all of the passed rescues.
