Searched around but couldn't find this posted. Hat-tip to slickdealer0123 for mentioning it in this thread.

Not the greatest deal on this, but it's the best as far as I can tell right now.

I ordered the grinder on Dec 1 and received the gift card immediately after it was shipped, which was about two hours after ordering. Received the grinder on Dec 3.

I stand corrected - checked my emails and the gift card arrived to my email immediately when the order was shipped. In my case it was shipped within about two hours of ordering.

Definitely contact them if you have a question - they were quick to respond. I had asked about tying the order to my new account because I created the account afterwards, and they said it was not possible.

Because of this, I would recommend creating an account before ordering.

They honored the same at store. Only difference seems to be a shorter return window of 30 days. Picked up one and used the gift card on what I would have purchased anyway!

I you can get this grinder upgraded with metal gears this thing will work forever...
Baratza upgraded my Maestro with plastic gears that broke down to a Maestro Plus with metal ones almost 15 years and it's still going strong.I have used it nearly every day and never even had to change the burs.... Well worth the cost of sending it in.

According to their site, you only need the M2 burr to upgrade to the Virtuoso+ as the motors are the same now.

Thanks, went for this after the two prior deals were canceled on me. I'll probably use the gift card to buy some coffee. I hope I get confirmation this ships soon so I can order the m2 burr (little gun shy after the prior deal cancelations).

What is special about the virtuoso+ ? Is it just the next level up?

Not very slick. This grinder has been around $120-130 twice in the last month from two different shops posted on here.

This was a price mistake and I believe they canceled most if not all orders
