WTF is this ???
« 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...?

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 :

Take into consideration different cameras, lighting, users... Or maybe Europe is just fucking with us... :)

The rim is not curled up like a WSM.
