$50.00?? http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/for/2855739352.html
Can anyone tell me what this is and is it worth the price?
|
It's missing the throat plate and I see rust on the handwheel. I'd pass on it for the price.
|
I'd also pass on the machine - but the cabinet is a Queen Anne which is kind of rare. The cabinet is normally burled walnut.

From the angles of the pictures, I don't see a motor shadow, either.
|
It has a potted motor and it looks like something is missing on the pillar near the handwheel, I think its maybe a Singer 101.
|
What in the world is a "potted motor", I've never heard that term?
|
I think it needs more than a little TLC. I'd pass on this one, too.
|
The motor on this would be underneath. If the needle goes up & down smoothly, it would be worth it. Also, does it have a foot pedal or knee? Pedals can be expensive. I just bought an old Janome and they want $85.00 for the foot.
