Several days ago I was checking out craigs list and found a singer sewing machine listed there, all it said was it was about that it was about 1 foot square, the next morning I called and they said they were "takng bids" on a 1936 Singer Featherweight, sha said she would call me on Friday to let me know the staties of the bidding, well she called last night and wanted to know if I wanted it, so tonight she brought it to my Salon and I am now the proud owner of my second FW for only $200 I think I got a great deal, what do you say

We only have one that I know of in town. I don't go there often, not very friendly. :(
