$12 Q1200 Restore & Donate

Josh, you clearly have a different market than I do. I have sold several Q grills over the last 6-7 years and would be happy for $200...even for Q3xx.

Absolutely it's just a different market.

 

[Cody Bratton]

I like the Q grills, but I have found them not so great for flips.

I have been hesitant to do them from what you have said with them not being the most profitable. I wonder with me being closer to the Madison area if I would have any luck with them. My apprehension is if the parts and time invested is worth a possible $200. $75 in parts I would guess, and a few hours worth of cleaning, blasting and painting.

If you can find a dirty Q 1200 for cheap or free you probably won't need any parts for it. Just cleaning and there's not much there to clean and maybe paint.

 

[Josh Dekubber]

1200 is the easiest Q grill to flip for me. It's small enough and portable and the grill still has plenty of space for cooking plenty of food. The bigger ones are less popular because at that point people would rather get a full size two burner.

It is pretty tough to make a buck on them when they can get a new in box one for $100

Josh, I find most Q's need a new set of grates at least. Not all, but most.

But that one's $180 and less desirable with no temperature gauge and no cart. I could easily sell mine over that one for more money.

 

[Bruce]

OOOPS! I thought it was $100.

I agree, the cart and lid with therm make a difference.

Out of the 5 Q1200s I've picked up none of them had bad grates maybe because they're a newer model and they have a different coating on them.

But I get what you're saying Bruce. You definitely have to find the right deal to make it worthwhile at least for me here. For there I can't say because I know the market's different everywhere

I remember this one. I struggled to get $150 for it:

No fold out side tables?

 

[Bruce]

I suppose that has something to do with it. Seems most Q1xx grills around here don't have them.

 

[Josh Dekubber]

@Bruce I think $150 would be a pretty good number here for that. Perhaps more with side tables and either a regulator delete or a full size adapter hose.

Definitely a nice looking 1200

 

[Cody Bratton]

So the little slits in the burner tube are supposed to be there?

I can't believe you could get that grill and cart for just 12 bucks! Then be in a place where you could resell nicely had you wanted to do so.

I think what you did, though, is very satisfying and good deed that will find its reward.

Jon it's very important to me to help people. I know you understand. When I'm retired I think I'm going to find some really good ways to help people.

 

[Josh Dekubber]

@Bruce here is a similar one that I flipped. I forgot I also had a cover for it. But I think all the extras add up to raise the value for the buyer.

 

[Bruce]

Certainly so Josh. That is a complete rig there.
