Well, I pulled the trigger on this today.  The sheet metal is in great shape.  Group just rebuilt and new steam wand installed.  For some reason they guy didn't do anything to the boiler... could be a good thing.  I plan to at least do a good descale of it. 

It came out of a restaurant that went out of business.  I don't think it's been used much.  Built in 1990, 2000W 115v.

And this is the smaller version... 
Larry, how much this machine goes for these days, roughly?
Thanks

Big version is my 2 group :)


New these run $3 - 4k.  That is why I pounced on this one, it was way less :)

We had a bakery/coffee shop close yesterday.  Going to prowl for bargains.

I'm sure they had day old pastries, but did you find any toys?

Brought the new Astoria up to the cabin.  Need to run water and a drain.  Hoping to get the water run this afternoon, so I can fire it up.

Depending on how the install went tho he might be close to that threshold.
