Need advice about equipment or want to share your latest discovery?

So, I can't sell pro gear (home stuff only) on CG's 'Buy-Sell-Trade' and no one there knows (or is willing to post) where its appropriate to sell it, and there is no appropriate place to sell it on HB. I don't want to sell it in the paper or on e-bay, as I want it to go to someone who will appreciate it, and use it wisely. If you were a conscientious barista looking for a new machine (something too big for most home use) where would you be looking?

If the espresso machine is new, then I would be looking to one of the established online vendors. For used equipment, I would look on eBay. If you are willing to advertise, CG's sponsorAds are pretty cheap, or googleAds targeted to specific sites. The Barista Guild also has a Marketplace forum that caters to professsionals.
