The Prosumer Discount
High-end "prosumer" espresso machines (like the La Marzocco Linea Micra or ECM Synchronika) rarely go on sale due to strict manufacturer pricing rules. However, retailers frequently post returned "open box" units with tiny cosmetic scratches at massive discounts to clear warehouse space.
