Well didn't get it for $400, pump leaked so offered $300 and accepted. After replacing the pump with my in stock spare checked out perfectly. Actually very clean for such an old machine. All in including my cost to replace the spare pump $372. Not too shabby a deal for a work horse catering/event/coffeehouse emergency backup machine! BWwaaaaaaaa

Nice job, Mike.  I picked up a Bunn G1 grinder for $25 the other day at a yard sale. Works perfectly.  It's always nice to score a good deal, even if no one else understands.

Even if the burrs needed replacing making it about $225 would have been a great deal. But $25 with burrs in good shape that's a ridiculous steal! 'Bout the best grinder steal I know of is a friend who found a Mazzer Major in a thrift shop for $30 a few years ago. New burrs and good to go well under $100.
