    I'd pass too! Decals aren't that good, the slide plate is missing, can't see if the bobbin case is there, the cabinet...well...

    One of my favorites, too. I got mine for $20, decals are great, it too was missing slide plate and was missing a base. I put in a wood base and turned it into a hand crank.

    I like to play a little game when they don't put the model # or price in the Heading. I will read it all and then try to invision what kind of wonderful machine will be in the pictures by the price they list in the body of the ad. I then scroll slowly, building the anticipation of what I will see. Then I giggle a little!!! (or sometimes I just bust out loud laughing!)

    Makes me wonder what attachments and 'pressure' feet make this machine so valuable.
