I pre-ordered on Amazon as well. Not sure sure I'll follow through and give it to my son for a Christmas or if he'll get one when I order a new second and we both get them for Christmas.

Get it on Amazon for $199. Get an Amazon card and save another $20.

Over $400 in Germany and Austria. More than double is hard

It's in fate's hands, now.

I've posted a picture of the lid's special edition logo thermometer on my Facebook page along with "DO WANT" mentioned.

Any friend or family member who truly cares about me will track it down and buy me one. (sniff)

Or, I might possibly post the Amazon link there also, as a safeguard.

I have a local Ace stocking the same copper 22 and 2-burner Spirit for the last 2-3 years. That's it, not so much as a single Smokey Joe or even a black 22 of any size.

Are they ever on clearance? Nope. Will they carry this red? Let's just say I'd rather not have to spend an entire afternoon going to Nashville or Bowling Green to find one.
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

That's very good thinking! I'm doing the same thing. My family knows how much I love Webers too!  Genius.

Sharing an Amazon Wish List probably drives the point home better, now that I think about it.

Ok if anyone in the bay area needs help I'll under cut Amazon and professionally assemble for $60 Lol.
This really made my laugh tho

I wonder who was the expert who assembled it for the Amazon photo.  The triangle is upside down.

I like it. I don't know that I can justify buying one, but I do like it. I also think that if it sells well the execs at Weber will be more likely to approve other limited edition runs in the future. You shouldn't piss all over this offering and then grumble about how everything offered in the US is black.

I have a NIB blue OTG that I picked up a couple years ago when we heard they were discontinuing the blue. It may end up being a gift for one of my sons one day (they're elementary aged now). This redhead might be a good one to buy and set aside for the other.

Taco or not! Here I come! I pre ordered mine today. Also, I need to go be a Weber Kettle assembly man for $90+ a pop, be a nice little side hustle... In my best Frank Rizzo voice to Amazon "I'll come down and start work tomorrow! Should I bring my F&*%@*G TOOLS!?" :D

$90? That's a good deal around here.



Methinks that boiled into that figure is the builder's transportation. (I'm 1.5hrs from a large city, or a good 30-40mins from the metro outskirts.)

I'm also guessing the installer doesn't get the full amount?  Even if it took an hour to unbox, setup, inspect, and whatever else Amazon required you to do I think $90/hr is sweet if you do get the full amount.
