A guy not too far from me has been trying to unload this 4-burner Summit Platinum on OfferUp. Because it is a Platinum with an all stainless frame and lower cabinetry, it did catch my eye.
The level of care, though, doesn't look promising. Especially when he says one of the burners is "a little off". Missing thermometer, broken and missing rotisserie, warped rods on grate...
You do have to like the all stainless cabinetry. Even with apparently less than great care, it looks ready to go with just a little cleaning. If the Genesis 300 series grills had been made this way (as they SHOULD have been - at least as an option) their reputation would be totally different:
$200 doesn't seem to be moving it. Certainly not low enough to evaluate firebox in person and see if the grill has flip potential. I suppose in time he might get a little desperate. My wife has been pretty adamant that I better not bring home anything else, and even if I did there are some others out there that appeal to me more. So this is brought to you mainly for curiosity.

p.s. I know some of you report that OfferUp is not very active in your areas, but around here it is starting to dominate. FaceBook Marketplace does have some really interesting items unique to that site, but OfferUp is still the busiest.
