Default auction sites

Hi, this is my first post although I'm a long-term reader. I follow shopgoodwill.com and have noticed how expensive bids and shipping have become. I've looked a long time for an affordable featherweight but sales have in increased to around $300 for a nice one. does anyone know of other sites?

Wish I could help you but I think that's the going price unless you just find a deal

I agree, $300.00-ish seems to be the going price regardless of venue.
Postage took a big jump this year. And it takes about an hour to wrap and double box a machine so it ships safely.

The girls are right. $300 to $400 seems to be the going price. Honestly, I saw one sell on E-Bay 2 years ago around Valentines day for $1,200.00. I could not believe it. It was a 1966. Unbelieveable.
