Yesterday, I posted in the Vintage Sewing Machine Photos thread about a beautiful, vintage Bernina that arrived a mess. So sad. I even contacted the seller before she sent it off to hopefully educate her on how to pack this lovely machine. She did not listen. When it arrived water poured out of the soggy, home-made, broken box and out of the machine as well. The case was smashed, parts missing...it's so disheartening.

I wonder how she'd feel if I took those dollar bills I gave her for the machine, out of her pocket and lit them ablaze with my old Zippo?
"Oh, it's OK...you can get replacements."

(Yes, I filed a claim with EBay.)

OK, I'm done venting now.
