Posted Fri Jul 6, 2012, 3:53pm Subject: Gaggia Parts (Classic, Baby, etc.) - Many types
Up for sale is a number of used Gaggia parts. I've bought, repaired and sold a few machines on ebay and have more or less stopped as I've been busy pursuing other new hobbies. I have ended up with a pile of spare parts. I don't currently have any use for them, wanted to offer them to everyone here before I put them on ebay.
Two things to note: 1) I recently sold a boiler setup (upper, lower, switches, solenoid, etc.) to Dan, per the first couple of posts below. On testing he found that while the solenoid worked when cold (how I tested it), it did not work when hot. I gave him a partial refund and an apology for not being thorough in my testing, and I believe in the end everyone was happy, though I invite him to chime in here or you to send him a message to be sure. 2) These items all were working when I pulled them, or I wouldn't have kept them, however I don't currently have a means to test any of them, so I can't sell them being *completely* confident. If you purchase anything here, and it turns out that they don't work, you will receive a refund as well. I am trusting the CG guys not to keep working parts for free claiming they have failed, and I guess the CG guys have to trust that I will issue refunds.
All that said, here are the items and detailed pictures of them:
I will ship things in flat rate USPS boxes, $5 for small boxes, $10 for medium sized. These are USPS's costs, actually a little less than their costs.

Listing Details Asking / Suggested Price: $5 - $20? (Offers welcome) Seller Name: Greg Sallee Seller Location: Saint Paul, MN Sale Type: For Sale

Replied!
I didn't mention it in the 1st post but FYI for anyone interested, I have and can include a few other items from a Baby that mate up to the boiler - ie the inlet fitting (no OPV just adapting a tube to the boiler), the connection from the top to the steam wand, as well as the tubing and steam wand itself. If anyone's interested please let me know and I'll take more pictures.

Really good prices if you need any of these parts. I'd buy from Greg again.
The parts I bought were extremely clean and in good shape. I'm more than happy with Greg's refund for the bad coil. After getting a new coil, I've been enjoying my upgrade from group valve to 3-way valve for the past week.
