T64 Grinder From Bella Barista

MediumRoastSteam But on Saturday, 23rd March, I checked the website and BB have lowered the price to £459 to the general public, appearing to have given up on the initial promotional strategy and opening the offer of £459 to everyone.

Thanks for correcting me, didn’t know that and was thrown by the email that was posted earlier showing BB as describing £459 as the “special launch price”. I simply took that at face value - didn’t appreciate that they launched earlier at a higher price and then relaunched at a lower price a few days later. Unfortunate for any poor enthusiastic early pre-orders.

HarveyMushman how glowing the review

Depends on whose review. if James H gave it a glowing review, you can be sure it’s out of stock within a few hours.
Lance reviewed the blind shaker and he only stated that the extraction was higher, not necessarily it tastes better, and sales of said tool skyrocketed. I am not a fan of Lance, but I’d be lying if I said I did not buy my blind shaker because of his video. I was always thinking it as an unnecessary tool.
Not sure why the debate of price comes from. I’m seeing 382.5 GBP which means no VAT (+20% and it’s 459). No indication of sale price whatsoever

This is what you see if you are in the UK:

dutchy101 - it looks really good I have to say. It’s in my basket 🤪

But I already have a Niche Duo so it would be an indulgence rather than a requirement. I’ve been very good in keeping away from the “buy” button, and would be delighted to hear how you get on. 👍

Adrianmsmith I’d paid more attention to some comments by @DavecUK on other threads with the key word in the sentence

Yep. He’s been saying that for a while. You definitely need to keep up with what really matters! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍 - and that’s key. 😘🤪

MediumRoastSteam haha yeh!!!

The good news is there’s a Niche product in a Prime position to play with as well.

If all else fails the 1zpresso j ultra is all anyone really needs for espresso. ☕

Adrianmsmith Ffs do you not have a brain.

You know what’s getting really boring? Your attitude.

Adrianmsmith So flippin what

Did anyone else on this forums actually join it to read about coffee related products and get advice on certain items? Or did some of you just joined to debate the advertising ethics of a price that you have seen advertised in a way that you do not like?

Do people not have a brain. Can we not just decide to buy it based on the price it’s offered.

It’s getting boring just seeing lots of arguments of what words should be used in an advert.

BORING

This thread is about BB offering a new grinder and a forum offer for discount, so it’s not off topic to mention things like introductory offers, coupons and sale prices.

I find the ethics of retailers marketing interesting and I’m pretty sure I’m not breaking any rules by mention them. There are several other posts across multiple threads by many users of this forum that also mention the ethics of marketing, both by retailers and “influencers”. In fact it’s quite the hot topic on here - the fact that you find it boring is frankly irrelevant and certainly doesn’t warrant, what appears by your use of all caps, to be a tantrum.

Sure this will change when the grinders start shipping and the focus of the discussion pivots to usage and performance. You might want to come back then.

Disappeared from the BB site now.

Curious why they don’t mark as “coming soon” like the rest of their equipment though - I just checked, and they completely removed it from the site - including the blog!

MediumRoastSteam probably because of all the bitching on here, thought fuck it.

Not worth the hassle 😂

Cuprajake very true!

I went for one. Recommendation from Dave was enough for me to give one a go. Great price.
