The machine is from 2009 (according to the sticker on the bottom).
Cosmetically its good, there are a few light surface scratches on the front, but nothing major. I'll try and get some more detailed pics taken today
I'm not sure, it was bought from here (from gaggiamanualsevice) about a year and a half ago.
I'll have a look at the serial when I get home this evening and try to work out a year for you.
I couldn't go that low I'm afraid, I really think ยฃ150 is a fair price when you take into account all the extras.
I would however be willing to go halfers on the postage if that would be of any interest?
