A pretty decent one, for anything other than espresso, can be had for 1/3
of that price. A fairly good one can be had for about 1/2 that price.

Entry level for really pretty good ones is around $275. It is a precision
instrument.

Look for a Bodum Antigua on eBay. For $50, you'll get a really pretty
decent mill. If you want an excellent product, look for a manual grinder
made by Zassenhaus. If you are lucky, you'll get a nice one for $30.
