All, This looks like a good deal - I would probably have bought it if it had been available when I made my purchase. Good luck! Click Here (www.1st-line.net) Chris

Now, that's what I call a bargain. It may not be the current modell, which is no doubt the reason for that deal. But who cares for that price?

This machine has slight bends to the drip tray and frame. Probably shipping damage. Do you really want a bent frame?

This is very tempting to me, especially since I live close enough to pick it up and avoid the shipping charges. That second closeup pic scares me, however. Looks like a pretty serious bend, with some corrosion thrown in. Hard to tell for sure from a photo. I'll probably pass on this, though I'm undecided.

Might be worth a trip to see the machine in person and maybe order a replacement drip tray?

Yeah, you're probably right. If it's still available later in the week when I have time, I'll do that. The pic I was referring to is the one under the pic of the drip tray. I'm not sure, but I think it shows the part of the machine that's beneath the drip tray, and it looks like more than just tray damage.
