wanted: parts for Pavoni (at a reasonable price!)

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Coffee Related Buy/Sell/Trade : One Thread

I'm trying to help a friend ressurect a Pavoni Europiccola and am getting a little demoralized at the outrageous prices asked for for some simple parts; Is is possible to do for $100 or less the following: heating element, brass adaptor ring + screws (3) (this is ca. 1980 machine which has the old screw-on type element so the ring clamps to the boiler and secures the new-syle element), element gasket, 2 piston gaskets, small gasket for top of piston shaft. Oh, and maybe a group gasket. Formerly Javabits in Seattle had reasonable prices but they seem to have gone out of business. Thanks!
