Selling an espresso machine in Lubbock
Lubbock is the commercial centre of a vast cotton-growing region on the high plains, with a large state university and a music history that includes one of rock and roll’s founding figures. It is flat, dry and windy.
The university clears student housing each May and the student population is very large relative to the city. Agricultural cycles move equipment across the surrounding region.
The city is flat and on a grid, so addresses are easy and parking is straightforward. Dust storms occur and reduce visibility badly, so agree a fallback in the windy season.
Fine dust gets into everything here during the windy season. Check filters, vents and fans on anything electrical before judging how well it performs.
Lubbock, in Texas, has around 260,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Houston, San Antonio and Dallas are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Lubbock
Demand rises through the spring cleaning season and again around college move-in in August, when furniture and small appliances move fastest.

Getting it ready
- Note the portafilter diameter, usually 51mm, 54mm or 58mm, because accessory compatibility depends on it.
