I am the original owner--bought Rocky in January 2006 and used it until May 2008 when I packed up my espresso machine (third child born and finding little time to dedicate to good coffee).  As a result, Rocky went pretty much unused until about 3 months ago when I started making espresso again.  I have been fortunate enough to be able to upgrade so Rocky is looking for a new home.  I'd guess it has probably ground between 50-75 lbs. of coffee in its lifetime.  I gave her periodic thorough cleanings (complete disassembly of burr carriers/hopper to scrub the burrs, vacuum out all stale coffee and debris from cleaning), including yet another tonight.  I also just recently replaced the front chute (original cracked) and overall, it's in great shape--no damage, only minor scuff marks on the front tray from everyday use.  I've never used it but will throw in a bottle of Grindz as well.  
I'm also selling my Expobar Office Pulser incase anyone is interested in a package deal.

Buyer pays shipping unless you live close by and would like to do a local pickup.

Let me know if you have any other questions.



P.S.  Also, in the attached pic you'll see a white cover.  I can't recall where I purchased it from but on the advice of a fellow CG member years ago, it was recommended as a great way to clear remaining grinds from the burr chamber and chute.  It's the top to a tupperware type contain that forms an airtight seal on Rocky's hopper.  When you pinch the 2 gray handles, the cover changes shape allowing for easier removal/insertion of the cover.  If you only slightly squeeze the handles, it allows you to use the cover much like a plunger and force air down through the grinder and thus expelling most remaining grinds.  You may not want to use it but I found it much more convenient than trying to work a brush up Rocky's chute to clear the remaining grinds and I have no use for it without Rocky so it's also included in the sale.

Wanted to include a photo of the burrs after tonight's cleaning as well.  My apologies for the lack of photography skill.

I'll take your Rocky if it is still available.  What is the best way to pay? Can you take PayPal? I'm in Columbus, Ohio.

Please reply to the email I sent.

Mike
