Stay on top of your local Craigslist.. Finding one is partly luck and partly patience.
Price is clearly dictated by quality of the grill.
Some sellers don't know the value or think its worth twice of what its really worth.
Some people don't like cleaning a grill or don't know that they can buy a replacement grate.
Some just want new.
@tb80 All these reasons that someone sells a grill can help the buyer get a great price.
$150 is not a bad price for a clean and fully functional performer.
You have to learn your market and if there is any competition for grills.
Our local group of guys are always emailing or texting each other about grills.
Like we need any more grills? Lol..
Just be shrewd in your dealings and know that if you're standing in front of the seller waiving cash, he's more likely to make a good deal..
