Looks like a great deal for anyone in the market for an HX machine. I have a question though. Are you siphoning the water from that big clear reservoir instead of the internal tank? Doesn't seem like you had to use a Flo-jet either. Does the pump struggle or anything. Might give me a few ideas...

Yes, I was taking water from the glass reservoir on the side of the machine. Machine doesn't "know" and doesn't "care" where you are taking water from as long as the the reservoir is on the same level as the internal tank, so there is no additional effort for the pump. I thought it was a good and elegant solution. I've always used reverse osmosis water with a splash of carbon filterered water and never had any scale problems.
It's a great machine that I want to go to a good home!

Being from DeKalb, I'm definitely interested in a local pickup. However, I would wonder how much room there is to move on the price. If you do a quick "completed listings" search on Ebay, you'll find that the going rate for the Andreja is right around your listed price for the Anita. Feel free to email me, and hopefully we can discuss it in more detail.
