WHAT IS THE VALUE OF MACHINE?

Before you buy a machine, you must consider not only the price or the amount you are willing to pay, but even those hidden costs that will endure once purchased the product.
In particular, should be considered:

STATE OF THE SEALS
If not explicit by the seller that the seals are in good condition or new, most likely you will be in a position of having to replace. This is especially true as the machine is old, regardless of whether it was used or not. Ironically he used a machine seals in the best conditions for a spare car, where the phenomenon of dry and crack is more evident.
For the replacement of seals considered an expense on 20-25 euro if you do yourself, up to 60-80 if you have to bring in assistance.

GENERAL STATEMENT
Please note the general state of the machine, particularly if there is rust in the tank, if the plastic cover level and supports are damaged if the logo sticker is present, if there are bruises, defects in chrome.

STATE OF THE BASIC ACCESSORIES
The allocation of accessories that minimum should have the machine to avoid buying them later: holder, filter basket of 1 and 2 doses, the drip tray and grid, tamper, measuring spoon.
The absence of one or more of these accessories could involve expenditure greater than that incurred in the purchase of the machine.

  STATE OF OPTIONS
Optional accessories, only on more expensive models, are wooden handles, automatic cappuccino, metal grid.
The presence of these accessories obviously adds value to the machine
