Haunted 1960s coffee grinder

Relic burr coffee grinder from the 1960's. Available for immediate pickup.

FREE! with caveats. . .

1. The finest setting is still pretty coarse, but if you use a French press, you're in hipster coffee heaven.

2. It's haunted.

Take a picture using Hipstamatic or Instagram in a low lit room with the grinder to your right, in line with and roughly level with your heart, and a ghostly image of Timothy Leary will appear in the frame. Also, I've woken up several nights to find the grinder had moved from my kitchen counter to my nightstand and was watching me sleep. The grinder has been known to go missing for weeks at a time only to reappear back in it's original location on the counter. Despite the drama, I've kept it this long because it makes a fine cup of coffee when it's around. Unfortunately, it scares my new girlfriend so I've been asked to get rid of it.

I'd ask $1,500 for it, but California being a particularly litigious state I can't afford to be deemed liable for destructive paranormal activity or demonic gates that open in your home, thus I offer it anonymously for free.

3. Works best with Peet's coffee.

Sorry, if it has disappeared from the spot on the porch, I can't help you. I really have no control over it.
