weber 2019 msrp pricing ...wow

[toolhead]

walking through lowes last week...i noticed a change in weber aisle pricing....

wow.... probably overdue but the whole charcoal line including wsms are 10% lift...

looks like replacement parts also got kicked up as well..

$440 for a 22.5" wsm...

My local HD as well.
SJ jumped $5, even the accessories were up.
The coal rake/hoe thingy is almost $17

I made my own years ago out of a cut down $1
yard sale garden hoe.  Now I buy every one I see, cut
 it down and give 'em to grillfellas I know.

yup...weber ash sweeps got kicked up too...16.99..

looks like everything got lifted by weber.

good thing i pulled my 22" wsm a few years ago...price paid then looks like a steal at todays price

welcome to 2019...im seeing price increases everywhere

Like every other company, with today's economy and the price of mfg, materials, wages, etc, all jacked up... it all gets passed on to>> the consumer. That's us. And we either pay it, or not. Not a helluva lot we can do about it. It's gonna happen.

I agree @hawgheaven I'm just waiting on my pay to catch up

[toolhead]

yup..i 100% agree..as i wrote in my post...it was overdue

note: last year weber website msrp was higher than 2019 shelf pricing...

it looks like weber finally required the resellers to sticker their 2018 msrp pricing.

price increases r everywhere.

jan 2019 local pet store run..got a call that our dog food brand bags went up xxx amount....

Ain't that the darn truth, trying to figure out how to spend the pat on the back I got for a stellar 2018

Bummer.  But even at a small increase in price they're worth it.  If you take care of them they last a long long time.

when i saw msrp on weber website in 2018...i figured this price change was around the corner

   Majority of us get our webers and accessories used so this is of no great consequence. When me and the missus or my buddies go to a baseball game we stand in the $5 tix line instead of paying $30+ per seat. Most of the time we'll hang out on the concourse level and have fun there. That's just how it is in this monetary system.

True for a lot of folks. I bought all my kettles either used or new years ago. Never had to look back. Good chit. And because of the reliability and longevity of the kettles, I don't see me having to ever buy another one. Just a grill grate now and then. And charcoal. LOTS of charcoal. I don't collect. I only own three 22" and two 18" kettles, and two 18" WSM's. Oh, and a big-assed Klose stick burner. What else do I need? Retirement...
