I just bought my Singer Model 66 "Red Eye" treadle for $150.00. She was born in 1917. I bought it at a sewing machine center and it had been cleaned, tuned up and had a new belt. The cabinet drawers contained all the attachments, extra bobbins, and loads of old thread on wooden spools (I put them in a decorative glass jar), and old notions. I'm tickled to death with her. She sews beautifully. I waited and shopped a long time to find her. She joins her little sister, my 1949 Featherweight and my newer machines in my sewing room. For our area, the $150.00 was a good buy. I think you need to shop around and be patient.
