Good price for upstate NY. Maybe consider getting it and fixing it up yourself as a starter FW. There are good books and lots of internet resources, esp here on the Board. If you decide you want a different one you can sell it at a profit while looking for another. Good Luck!

I apparently posted while you were. Congratulations!

Yay yay for you.

Congratulations, beautiful little machine. $160.00 is a good price, in my area they go for a little more. (Very nice that it came with additional feet!)

The bobbin case and the bobbin showing in your picture are not for a featherweight and will not fit. A featherweight bobbin and bobbin case are much thinner. Bobbins are often available at sewing machine stores but bobbin cases can be a little pricey $50 and up if you have to replace it. Enjoy your new featherweight.

yes I know, now when a try it and did not fit.... well i'll find one and keep going. Here in Spain is a rare finding this sewing machine and i am very pleased.

Marta, can you ask the seller to try to find the bobbin case? Maybe they had another machine in the house, and maybe they have a Sewing Box. If the machine was indeed used in the household there, then they likely have it in a Sewing Box and just don't know it.

This happened to me with a machine. Often the family selling it just does not know the difference, what is meant to go in the sewing machine and what is just sewing machine junk. Maybe worth a try...?

A good idea indeed! I'll ask him tomorrow. The seller is a trift store but the owner is a nice person and could ask the first owner maybe. Thank you Cecilia!

You made a good buy, in my opinion. You have a Centennial machine which in some peoples mind make it more collectible. Enjoy your new baby.
