You’ve got too much coffee gear but also you want more coffee gear. It is the yin and yang of being really into coffee. Luckily the answer to both of these problems may be one in the same. Introducing Second Shot Market, an online resale marketplace for residential and commercial coffee gear and food service equipment.
Launched Monday, September 22nd, Second Shot was brought to life by equipment and parts retailer Prima Coffee. It functions like a coffee gear-focused eBay without the bidding or a Poshmark or other consumer-to-consumer platforms. Listings are user driven, who are responsible for writing descriptions, uploading photos, and setting the price. It is completely free to create a listing, and Second Shot will take 8% once a sale is complete, which per the site, “covers platform maintenance, payment processing, and dispute resolution services.”
From the buyer side, all you need to do is create an account and get to shopping.
Despite going public just this week, already there are a host of items with deep discounts off their original retail price. There’s a Mahlkönig X54 grinder for $399 ($200 off retail), a Ceado E37S espresso grinder for $950 ($800 off), a Ditting Sweet Lab grinder for $1,800 ($1,200 off retail), a Rancilio Silvia espresso machine for $540 ($460 off), there’s even a Diedrich three-kilo roaster with afterburner for $5,000.
So if you’re looking to offload some of your coffee counter to fund refilling that same coffee counter, Second Shot may be your one-stop shop for swap. For more information or to see all the current items for sale, visit Second Shot Market’s official website.
