I have this Singer and don't know what year/model it is or how much it is worth.
I have no idea what a fair price would be. Please help! Thanks for your help.

It's not worth a single penny, so you should just mail it to me to get it out of your way!!!
I don't know squat about vintage machines so I'm not going to be helpful here, I just came to drool over your really pretty machine. They sure don't make 'em like the used to...even that case is beautiful.
Hey Kel!!! If you want to do some trading holler at me!! I can always use another machine.

HAHAHAHA!!! This made me laugh! It's a beautiful machine. I don't have any vintage machines either but I am DEFINITELY keeping my eye out for that special one. I'm not looking to collect vintage machines but I would LOVE to have one this beautiful. So when you're ready to get rid of it... pm me! For now, you enjoy that beauty and learn as much as you can about it. You won't regret it.Originally Posted by Sewnoma
once you get your first vintage machine, others will follow. i am not sure why that happens.

Sewnoma this really made me laugh because my DH told me it was a pretty piece of junk and to just get rid of it!
He didn't realize she still works because I haven't used her in a couple years.
It seems I was mistaken in the fact that not using an old machine to "save" her is the right thing to do.
Since so many of you work them hard and have good results I will have to put her to work once again.
Thanks again everyone for all the helpful info.
O.M.G. she is beautiful....please don't sell her. Does she run ???
you could go onto the Singer website and date her I think...she should have a model and serial number plate. I just did that for my mothers featherweight and found out she was manufactured in 1939.
Perhaps go onto ebay and look for finished sales for a price once you have the Singer information.
Yes that is a real picture of my hometown Temecula, California. We feature premiere Wineries, World Class Golf Courses, Pechanga Indian Casino and Hot Air Balloons
Yes she does run, although I haven't used her for a couple years now. Thanks for the info.
First, find the serial number on the machine and look it up on this website:
http://www.singerco.com/support/machine-serial-numbers
That will tell you what year it was made. Then do a google search putting in the terms "singer sewing machine" and "year[the number of whatever year you found above]".
The postings you find will include Amazon, eBay, etc sales and you can see what kinds of prices people are expecting to get for this model machine. DO NOT GIVE THIS MACHINE AWAY FOR A SONG! It is valuable even if it is not working right now. It can be fixed. I love it, but live too far away to come to your yard sale ... {sigh}.
On the back of the machine is a metal plate attached to the motor and says serial #2030955 then in the front it has a plate (which you can see in the last pic before the case) with G8907883. Which numbers do I look up?
