I know absolutely nothing about espresso or being a barista.
I am kind of a scrap collector and I've discovered this.
I'm just wondering if it's worth keeping as is and selling for parts or should I just get all the copper and brass out of it and scrap the rest?

Im unfamiliar with this machine, but i dont see a pump anywhere.
I would estimate what you would get for scrap value and put it on offer up or facebook marketplace for slightmy higher. Mention that you will scrap it if no offers are above (insert scrap value).
Besides the scrap parts the **Mater XP110 pressure stat** and the **Gicar level control** might be worth a little bit. The mater probably 2-5 dollars untested or 5-15 confirmed working. The gicar probably 20 bucks untested or 30-60 confirmed working.
If you replace the o-ring inside the vacuum breaker and clean it up you could get 10 bucks for it. See **LM L190 Vacuum Breaker**
Also the steam wand arms, tips and knobs might be useful to someone.
The group itself is the most valuable parts. In used condition, I’d ask $100. They’re about $275 new.
Finding a buyer is another matter.
Edit: that group is pretty banged up after looking closer. It should still function, but maybe $75 considering its condition.
That CAUTION sticker: “I’m tired, boss”
Where abouts are you based?
