New Toy!
I just picked up a ECM Michelangelo A1 for FREE! I noticed it sitting on a loading dock a few months ago and I had a friend who knew the manager of the company ask if they wanted to sell it. At the time they wanted to repair the machine and put it back into use. Fast foward to May 24th when I see the machine has been moved next to the trash dumpster with trash bags all around it! I had my friend give the manager a call again and they said take it away!
