I was looking on Weber's website today and notices the MSRP prices are higher than I remember. The 22" Original kettle has an MSRP of $109.00 and the Performer Delux has an MSRP of $499.00. Are these new MSRP prices, or has it been this way? If these are new, that's a pretty big jump for the Performor Delux!

I've noticed retailers such as crate & barrel and a few others use the $499 as an msrp but sells it for $399. Probably just a marketing ploy to make buyers feel as if they are getting a discount.

Just checked and Amazon still had the Copper and Green at $399.  Interestingly enough, I also found this:




Not sure where they're shipping it from . . .

I'm like you I didn't notice the price changes from Weber. Of course I haven't been looking all that hard for a new one.

I noticed prices have gone up as well.  Looks like they used the Red Limited Edition as the intro grill to their new prices.

I looked on Amazon and prices seemed normal compared to the past couple of years.
Looking for colored 18's and SJ's.

Damn, they sure are proud of that one! That's a lot of cash!! :o

Multiple kettles and WSM's. I am not a collector, just a gatherer... and a sick bastard.

At least for the Performer, that is the normal MSRP. Everyone sells it for $400 though. Classic making you think you're getting a discount.
Together we'll fight the long defeat.

Check out the weber website.   Mastertouch is now 219.  Wasn't it always 199?  Premium is also up $10, not including the Red one.

On the Weber site, the MSRP for the Performer Deluxe is $449.00, and that's the same for the Black, Green, or Copper.  There is no Crimson on their site, but I have found it, for $399 on several other sites:

- True Value

- Ace

- Acme

- BBQGuys

Just to name a few.  I think the Amazon one is just some greedy SOB who is trying to take advantage of some unsuspecting newbie.

Ace even has a Red Kettle at $149 (looks Crimson to me) that is different from their Red Limited Edition for $199.
