Does seem weird that static would build at up her shop and not at yours.
Could just be carpets and rubber shoes at one and tiles / leather soles at the other, I reckon. Or big humidity differences. Or both.
My Sette sometimes has grinds flying all over with static. Stirring the beans beforehand with a spoon dipped in water helps that though.

I’d do some continuity tests with a multimeter. See if you get continuity between the exposed metal parts of the grinder and the top pin of the plug.
The next step would be to use a simple socket tester on the socket to prove it has an earth.
