All my usual local haunts for basic Weber replacement parts have failed me miserably this past week.
ALL I WANT IS A STEENKING LID HANDLE!!!
Today I took an out of the way drive to one of the Do-It Centers that has been a reliable year-round source for all things BBQ, great supply of Lump, Royal Oak Briqs, WEBER parts etc. etc. and even they didn't have any!
And the recurring theme I'm hearing at every Lowes, ACE Hardware, Home Depot, True Value and now my trusted Do It Center is "you'll have to call Weber". "We only can sell "accessories" and not replacement parts.
" WTF I ask, aren't grates replacement parts? I NEED A @#%*! LID HANDLE!! NOW!!" (I'm sorry sir, you're scaring the children) "We can only sell what Weber allows us, and we have a great assortment of "accessories" but sorry - no handles".
I ordered some from Firecraft late last year and they were on backorder for 6 weeks+ didn't make sense at the time.
Rant over!
Today wasn't a complete bust - I did pick these hubcaps up (3 pack??) for $.65 each!
They always come in handy!
YMMV just sayin'!
