Thanks @Dr Blunderbrain (hahaaha nice name!). Lets hold fire for just a moment and see if @Pippy still wants it.

👍

morning mate, havent tried it yet but had it on my ebay watch list so thought i'd share it with you just in case you hadnt seen it yet https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EX5-EP5-EP5GW-COFFEE-MACHINE-ULKA-WATER-PUMP-GLASS-MINERAL-VALVE-BALL-ONLY-PYREX/382416920038?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EX5-EP5-EP5GW-WATER-PUMP-ULKA-SERVICE-KIT-O-RING-SEAL-PYREX-GLASS-BALL-UPGRADE/382623951720?hash=item59162a2b68:g:x1QAAOSwORxb5Hxn sorry but i dont think either come with a spring

The logo is pretty faint to be fair and unfortunately I don't have the box. But it is a 58mm exact (not a 58.4mm competition version or otherwise). It has a flat base and the color is advertised as brown wood. For you to get a better idea of its color/grains the handle looks exactly the same as this in real life: https://www.bellabarista.co.uk/motta-competition-tamper-58-4mm-brown-wood-flat-base.html I hope that helps, sorry for not having the model number.

The contrast in pricing/perceived demand between the two models is insane

Sorry for the delay mate would £14 all in be ok for you?

#curb your lever emotions

I can third that, brought a solenoid off Martin, top gent!

I just checked out valuations/recent sales thread I'm gauging £250, except mine doesn't come with a sexy pre-infusion PID and bottomless PF. How does £200 + pp sound?

Mines undergon a full tear down recently down to component level. It's also fitted with a pid and has OPV set to 9bar. The only thing it could do with is a rancillio wand (£15) if your friend is into milk drinks. I've been eyeing up the la pavoni's recently so looking for excuses atm haha!

Let me check postage cost and report back to you mate, cheers

Morning mate, any luck getting your hands on one yet?

This one is medium-ish brown i.e. not the dark brown one which I used to have too. No dents but a few very fine hairline scratches. Would like £12 + pp.
