Two votes for the Silvano for the lead - Oscar and LP are a sure thing if I want to stop now - Silvano is 82 points away... :P

Why do I get the feeling that whatever you get, you'll be on CG & H-B within two years, asking about upgrading? ::)

I'm late to the party, but I'm glad you didn't go for the Oscar. We have one at work and it's OK, but it kinda looks cheap and I've been underwhelmed by the quality of the shot's I've been able to pull with it -- though I'm sure I could do better with some focused time spent learning how to drive it better.

Hi Peter, I ordered the Ouick Mill Silvano last night around 9 EST - the invoice indicates it will ship direct from Chris Coffee so it should be from the new stock Chris received this August.  I will be more excited when I get the shipping confirmation email. :D

Now I am not sure what I am getting - I ordered a Silvano but then someone PM'd me from another board about this:

http://www.roaste.com/newsletter/Get-free-coffee-machine%E2%80%A6where%E2%80%99s-catch-you-ask?utm_medium=email&utm_source=Newsletter&utm_campaign=ebeansMoney

I guess either is better than neither.

I will wait till I get the shipping confirmation to see what is heading my way.  ???

Who did you order the Sivano from?  It doesn't sound like you had a real strong preference, but I'd still be pee'd about someone making a substitution.

I ordered it through ROASTe - my order confirmation email shows this:

Products on order:
1 x   Quick Mill Silvano Espresso Machine - $995.00 (shipped from:Chris Coffee)
Model: 2-119-05762-1

But I am not sure it has shipped yet.

I'd suggest a preemptive strike on Chris', calling them to head off any mistakes.  They'll be happy to help.

Great advice Peter!  I spoke with Tynnetta and she gave me a UPS tracking number for my Quick Mill Silvano!

Now all you have to do is sit back and wait.  While you're waiting, you can scout the web for every instance reporting your purchase of the Oscar and squash those vicious rumors.
