Two thumbs down, for what looks like a good deal, but no comments. What's the problem?

Most likely because this is not a manufacturer approved site so warranty will most likely not be honored. This is my guess.

Wondering the same. Likely what pthomas1991 mentioned about it not being an approved site or not a widely recognized site?

Yeah, this is a great price on a great grinder so that site name must be what's getting thumbs down. Baratza customer service has a stellar rating (even in many cases repairing grinders that are out-of-warranty entirely.) That's not to say that you can count on that... but at this price, if I needed one and this is a legit site that ships me a brand new Encore, I'd pull the trigger. Mine has been running strong every day for about 2 years now and if it breaks, it's not even difficult to repair yourself.

It makes people feel like they have power/control over something (that they can't obtain in their daily lives) by downvoting deals.

I own a different Baratza grinder for 10 years now. I use it daily and it's been 100% problem free. I upgraded burrs recently and it feels like a new grinder. Parts are readily available from Baratza website and these grinders are extremely simple to work on. Their customer service is amazing. They stand behind their products and are quick to answer to any questions you may have. Highly recommended!

Already dead. Been waiting for a deal on one of these but an authorized seller for a few bucks more is worth it to me for the warranty support.

Maybe that's what you do. I downvote deals when I think something isn't a good deal.
