I found this auction on eBay and thought I'd pass it along to the coffee fanatics. Personally, I want to have sex with this machine, it is that beautiful.

That is not an outrageous price. I have seen them sell for well over $500.00, depending on condition and accessories, i.e., a set of matching mugs with red bakelite handles and a small tray to hold everything.

These accessories are very difficult to find because the bakelite handles were so fragile.

"There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who say: this glass is half full. And then there are those who say: this glass is half empty. The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!" Terry Pratchett
