Question help choosing a bench grinder/buffer

hello all,
please can anyone give me advice on a bench grinder/biffer i have my eyes on, the spec is:
350w 240V Speed 2850 RPM Wheel diamater 200mm
with a 3 year warranty.
8'' grinding wheel
it is on Ebay (UK) Item number: 7601251160 if anyone can help havin a quick look and advise, if it isnt up to you guys standards could anyone direct me in the right direction,however its all about money,will a less expensive one do til i save up??
i think mike you have mentioned about sanding prep, what arethe grinding wheels provided good for (an obvious question i thought at first,but asking anyway )
i have a dremel already, but i will also looking for palm sanders n the like as recommended, OHHH NOOO i hear you say, it would be great if i could be steared in the right direction then.
where i work there are a hell of a lot of silver trophies and plaques etc, and the boss had a spy on my pc.... he thinks its a good idea that i polish things........told him to come and see me in a few years..
i will catch you all later i'm off to take off the timing cover, which i forgot all about.
