Disaster Relief Blue Wave SJG
« on: November 18, 2017, 08:30:09 AM »
Let me start by giving a BIG THANKS to @mdb240 who let me know about this on FBMP.
The ad was up for 3 hours when I got the link.I contacted seller with my number and she called back in 5 minutes. We spoke for about 30 minutes. I explained I was looking for a blue SJ and was upstate and would be cheaper to ship it then to pick it up. 10 minutes after we got off the phone I sent payment. Then I went back to look at the picture in the ad. I noticed the box and was puzzled. I called back to talk to her about it. As you may remember Hurricane Sandy hitting NY. She's located on Staten Island which got hit really hard. She explained how they had no electric and FEMA was handing them out for free. They got a generator hooked up to their home a day later and never even opened the box. They only just opened the box to take the picture for the ad. Well it showed up an hour ago and I'm still in a daze by the color. Even came with starter cubes. So has anyone ever seen a FEMA Blue Wave SJG?

Picture from the ad.

Score! Man, you're on a roll lately!


Edit: fully realizing the disaster kit INCLUDING the joe now - WOW! Very cool if Weber donated them - that's the Weber we're used to dealing with!

Wedgewood Blue. Congratulations, that’s a gorgeous color. I think they were sold in 2012 in Europe.  I did a post on the Wedgewood Blues a while Back

So @captjoe06 this is Wedgewood Blue and not Wave Blue?

I could be wrong of course. Did the Box say Blue Wave?

@catskillsmoker what’s the vent code? That might give us some clarity.  If it’s an AU code, that’s the year the Wedgewood was offered.
