For those who have bought the nescafe dolce gusto espresso machine,

Since Korea doesn't have many flavors of capsules to choose from, I have purchased imported coffee capsules from Europe online, price was 70,000won for 2 packs of 3 (6 in total), flavors are mocha and vanilla latte.

Since I think 3 of each is a bit too much for now, I was wondering if anybody wants to split it with me. Each box would be about 11,667won.

I live right at mapo station, if you're interested, please contact me.

I couldn't help it and bought more... so if you know ANYONE that might want to share with me... please contact me!!!

So flavors available are: Chococino, Vanilla latte, Mocha and Espresso Intenso

Do you still have the Espresso Intenso? How much with postage.

Oh wow! surprised to see this thread coming back to the top.

Yes I do have them, and actually, I'm leaving Korea soon, and might need to get rid of my coffee machine. I have bought so many different flavors of capsules, it would be a shame if I have to just give them away. If you would like to take some off my hands, that would be grreat ^^

As they are still brand new and I'm still not sure whether I can bring my coffee machine with me or not, I'll give you a bit of a discount at 10,000won for each box of the imported ones?

Actually I have already tried to sell my machine, with no luck. I think the coffee is crap. One of the problems its just too weak, so thought I would try the intenso. So only that flavour am I interested in, and initially just one. Let me know about postage$. I am in Busan

[smiles4ever]

Yeah, you're right, but have you tried to use 2 capsules instead? it tastes pretty good if you use two.

And sure, why don't you give me your email, and you can give me your address there, I'm guessing the delivery is around 3000 to 4000 won? in Seoul. Is it the same to Busan? or would it cost more?

Can't pm yet on this so just to give you the area, Dongnae-Gu Oncheon3 Jang.

I have used two, but didnt think that was very successful. Not to mention really throwing the value factor off the scale. Also the coffee is bitter, like faulty bitter. I can make a plunger brew 3 or 4 times as strong and not have that nasty bitterness. And those flavoured or milk ones are disgusting.

Sorry for the rant. I really wanted to return it. If you are thinking of selling, good luck with that. Not one bite on the two sites I listed. Looks like you'll be giving it away, unless you take it back home.

Lol, I do admit it's more of a toy than an actual professional coffee machine, but it still beats instant coffees ass. And the machine is damn cheap. But have you tried the other espresso flavors? they sell them on their websites.

I don't hate it that much, I actually would love to bring it back home, but since I live in Canada, I'm not sure something that uses so much voltage should be operated through a voltage adapter. So the only way I can bring it back is if there are actually places that helps you convert the whole plug (or whatever from inside ).

Oh! so, by the way, does anybody know if those places exist? and if so, are they expensive? I would love to just bring my TV back with me too instead of taking a big loss trying to sell it.

Do you still have any capsules for sale? My coteacher just bought a nespresso machine for our classroom and I need to get my hands on some capsules.

Oh hi! Yes, I still have alot of the capsules and alot of flavors since I don't have much time to make it at home myself ;;;

If you want just a few boxes that's fine.. or if you want (since I'm going back to canada soon), I can sell you my whole "inventory" for a bundled price if you want? Once I get home tonight, I'll tell you how many boxes and what flavors I have left, and give you a price ok?

By just estimating, I think I still have about 10 boxes, multi-flavored.. and all ordered from Europe. Anyways, I'll let you know!
