Beware of grinders in that end of the market / price bracket. They may or may not be suitable depending on the end use the new owner wants to put them to. If you are talking good espresso, you can in all likelihood forget it. While filter /plunger will be a lot more forgiving of a crap grind (doesnt mean it will be great, just forgiving), a pump driven espresso machine wont be.
In some cases, grinders can be OK for espresso, but not for other brew methods. Depends on how the grinder is designed. My porlex, for example is OK at grinding for espresso. Siphon though, not so good. Because of the way it grinds, coarser grinds are less consistent than finer. Or so it seems to me. Don't know anything about this grinder, but for the price, I would be tempted to buy it and, if no good, sell it on eBay.
