Picked Up My First Blue
« on: June 08, 2020, 02:39:05 PM »
I’ve haven’t seen many Blues in my area. One popped up last night for $70. The pics in the listing looked nice so I jumped on it.

Upon inspection this morning, I found that it was in really nice shape except one Huge pop (that wasn’t shown in the listing). Probably should have walked away. 

Ended up offering $50 for it and he through in a Weber deluxe cover for a 26.” I really like the blues.

Don't get Blue over the porcelain loss, that is a nice score
Seeking a Black Sequoia I know I know, I'd settle for just the tabbed no leg grill

Nice find. I'm considering pulling the trigger on 1 of these, do you know which year these blues were made?

I had the same thing happen on a 40 dollar blue, got there and it had a big piece of porcelain gone, I think from the guy cleaning it, lots of porcelain gone around one leg socket too. And he wouldn't budge on the 40. I went ahead and bought it, and my son said it was his when he saw it lol



At least its "slate blue" lol
