Price for a UDS

Post by Goblin »

Hey all. I'm considering selling my UDS that I built last year, it works well but I have a number of different design ideas I want to try out which basically means it'll be easier just to make a new one and selling the original will help finance it. But I have no idea what they sell for, on one hand I want to get a fair price for it but on the other I don't want to overcharge someone who wants a UDS but can't build one for what any reason. The UDS has 3 racks (the racks themselves will not be included) one for a heat plate and two for cooking, a dome lid (not weber though), vertical pipes and built in thermometer. Any feedback on this will be appreciated. Cheers.

Let's see a pic then! I'd say no less than £150 going by the description of it

Hi
You could get £150 no sweat.
I have been building different design features into my UDS's, go for it!

Cheers

Right, hopefully this link has worked. These pics are from last year but I'm going to clean and reaping it before I try and sell it I expect.

£150 is good news and is a lot more than I was expecting, I thought they'd sell for about £60.

I think for 150 you would need to include grates.

Wow, didn't realise you could get them that cheap, I take it they fit webers. I'll see about picking up a set before I sell it then.

I'd definitely include grates if you're gonna go for £150, but still I think it's a reasonable price for a pre-built UDS! :D

No, they don't really - they are 53cm. They are also fairly flimsy, but probably ok for a smoker as stuff doesn't get moved around much and the temperatures aren't as high.

To work in a UDS you need to use some long screws to hold the grill in place inside.
