La San Marco Espresso Machine 95 E

Any input on this machine. I might be able to get into it at a great price. Way overkill but hey we only die once (at least in this carbon unit). I have the plumbing and electrical so that would be a non issue.

thanks

Well the auction is over. Minimum bid was $500 (with a grinder). I still wonder if at that price would it be worth the hassle. A friend I talked to today said if the boiler was drained, I would have to replace all the gaskets! :shock: The guy emailed me today and he will run it again with better pic's this time. He said he pulled it about 2 months ago and it was functioning fine at that point. Also, he is only about 3 hrs from my place so I don't have to worry about freight. :?:
