I'm selling my Rancillio Rocky Doserless and Mazzer Super Jolly. Both are in used but good shape. They could probably both use new burrs, though I'm getting perfectly good grinds out of them now. I'm selling them because I lost my mind and decided to upgrade to a Mahlkoenig Guatemala for drip and a Compak K10WBC for espresso.
The Rocky was bought new 2 years ago. I've used it for drip since then almost every day, and it's given me no problems. Everything is intact and in very good shape, with two small exceptions: 1) I removed the doser fork because I don't use the grinder for espresso. Chances are about 95% that I can find it, but I'm not absolutely certain I can. 2) I've also removed the front chute so that it's easier to get excess grinds out. Again, this works fine for drip, but it wouldn't work at all for espresso. The chute has subsequently been lost. I checked online, and a new one seems to cost about $20. Anyways, I'm asking $175, which is less than half of the price new (as quoted on on chriscoffee.com).
The Super Jolly was bought used 15 months ago. I've used it semi-regularly as an espresso grinder. It works really well, but has a few small cosmetic problems: the on/off knob is chipped (still completely usable), there's a small crack in the hopper, and the doser lid is missing. Again, none of this has any effect on the usability of the grinder. I'm asking $225.
I really don't feel like packing these up, so I'd much prefer to sell them locally. I live in Somerville, MA. If you come by here, we can also demo them with my espresso or drip setup, and maybe I'll even throw in a pound of homeroasted coffee. I also might be willing to bring them down with me to NYC next weekend, but I'll give a preference to local buyers.

I believe the Mazzer is gone (I talked with Josh about it yesterday). I'm not sure about the Rocky. Just thought I'd give everyone a heads up before everyone replies for no reason.
