    Re: Advice for Inspecting Boema at Auction tomorrow

    tap tap tap......

    ...the grinder for $105.00 ?????........an absolute steal!

    Even if the other fellow had gone to his budgeted 200 and you went to 250, it would still have been a bargain and even at 300 it would have been a very fair price when you consider (as I have tried to show above), the cost of new replacement VS what new grinders you get for a similar price ie the relative values.

    But of course it has to suit your situation and be what you really want.

    If size is important, I can sell you a new Eureka Mignon on special at the moment. It has 50 mm grinding plates (same as Rancilio Rocky which is a very well thought of world renowned grinder), but with a far far superior method of adjustment (continuous worm "stepless") than that of the Rocky. But even at CS special offer it will cost way in excess of the above. They landed in the container last week. If I can help please let me know.

    Good luck in your search.

      I understand what you said about the "value" of the Bo-Ema, but $200 plus was just the wrong amount of money at the time for something that was just too big. Even if I end up spending more later, Ill have the chance to investigate more and save more.
