The best $50 gift certificate is a fifty dollar bill. It's universal. I wouldn't  offer less than that if I knocked on their door. I'd probably go to $100 or 2 maybe 3 for a good one, if they seemed indecisive . Funny Weber can produce a finish with a perfect little circle with an R in it, written in the porcelain. But all they produce is solids( Except for logos). The fades would sell. Wish they would open up a custom shop like Fender. Might be a nice job promotion for a dedicated employee. Haha, I can see it now pre-worn new kettles.

I hope that doesn't get scrapped.
It looks like it may have steel wheels.
Best of  luck.

I'm not trying to buy it (for more than a few bucks)... just trying to save it from the trash, if that's where it's going. Who knows, maybe they used that one the night before and it didn't get put back in the garage with the rest of the collection. If that's the case, cool. Maybe they were going to throw it out and realized it may be worth something since someone took interest in it. I guess that's a better outcome than ending up in the scrapper's truck. A custom shop would be cool. I guess they must have some sort of customising capabilities since they can put logos on as promo items. You'd think they'd open it up to the public. They do it for shoes which seems like it would be a PITA. Why not do it for kettles? It's only one part of the production process... not like every part would be different or custom.

Drove by this morning, note was gone and kettle is not by the trash cans. Guess it wasn't going to the curb after all.

Either way, You saved it from being left out too close to the trash can. Congrats. Now that scrap man can't take it.
