Philips Quadrante Senseo Coffee machine

It is part of an estate and as I already have a ( less fancy ) Senseo that is still going strong after 10 years, I am selling this one. It works with Senseo pods ( biodegrable filter paper) available online and from Dutch shops. The coffee is very nice indeed. If you like you can buy a bag of 36 pods off me for $9.
The machine is very simple to operate and comes with 1 and 2 cup podholders, a pod that you can fill with your own ground coffee ( which was bought as an extra) and the 2 original glass Senseo Quadrante cups.
I saw an EBay advert yesterday ( photo) where a Quadrante is offered for the rather exaggerated price of over NZ$ 600 !

Price: $95
