I got it! The seller felt bad because the box looked like shit, and when I opened the sealed box, there was a small dime sized chip on the very edge of the lid lip opposite side of the thermometer. Also, the seller apologized because they thought it was black, but it was blue! Beautiful blue!! She asked if I still wanted it, and that she would drop the price to $50, since she received the grill in lieu of a $50 payment 21 years ago. So, I came home with a NIB Blue "ER" code (1996) Master-Touch this afternoon. I polished up the legs with some Mother's aluminum polish before I assembled it, and changed out all the fastener hardware with stainless steel nut, bolts, and washers. It's a great addition to the family.

I'm still trying to read through the 5 pages of how to post a pic. I post on Imgur and Reddit all the time, I can't believe how complicated it is here. https://imgur.com/gallery/qMqaT

Quoted you so this thread would also have your pictures.  Congratulations. They sure are purty right out of the box.

See... aren't you glad you asked a bunch of enablers here if you should get it?

That truly is a beautiful blue!  Congrats.
