I have coveted this grill for a while. I have thought of buying a silver and adding a pan but I still want the OTG for some reason.  I am unwilling to pay $129 though

Knowing that, I stopped @ an ACE they have 10% off any grill over $100 with an additional $25 gift card to an attached grocery store

129 - 13 - 25 gets me to about $100.  Should I do it??????

I am not a collector, but I do have a small collection.

Hell yes Jeff! You've been searching and obviously want it. Don't sweat the price. Want it, buy it.
Not everyone deserves to know the real you. Let them criticize who they think you are.

I think if it's in the budget you can pull the trigger on it. But ask yourself if this is going to sit your needs space wise. When I was searching I decided to go with a 22 as I figured I could put it on cl for a small loss and go to the 18 where the other way around was more or of pocket than I would be comfortable with.
This is a fairly cheap hobby when you consider the time  with family and friends and how many meals are created.

I would save the cash and get a 22. 18 is nice but 22 is much more versatile.

I would go for it. These are very hard to find on CL. How did you get the $25 gift card?

Y'all are enablers, and yes, you never see these on craigslist.  I am a cheap-o but I may have to pull the trigger on this one.

Just get it, keep the box and if you decide to get rid of it, post it on here. I am sure plenty of people would be interested.

This is the ultimate enabler thing to say. Love it!

If you want it get one. Plenty of people here sick with Weberitis that'll grab it if you flip it.

I agree about 22 being more versatile. But I use my 18otg most of the time these days. It's just me and the wife so it's perfect for us. An 18 take less coals and heats up faster. I never thought I needed one before but now that I do...it's my whipping horse.

If I could only have 2 kettles it would be the 18otg and the 26r. I'd skip the 22 altogether.

And I'm sure LB has a trove of 22s

I didn't want to explain that but I have enough 22's to get me by.  This would be an over the top luxury, something I have had my eye on the CL for quite a while.
