Down from ONLY 1250, to 999. what a bargain...and its a special st pat's day edition, too.

I emailed him to ask him where he based the value for this off of, and he replied to me with a screenshot of a bunch of BIN ebay auctions for singer machines in the thousands.......none of which of course are going to sell. I told him try looking at ones that actually SELL for this same machine and he just said "nice of you to rip off little old ladies with your cheapness!".

Oh my Jenn...what an evil, wicked person you are to rip off Frank, little old lady that he is!!! :D :D :D :D

I think I'll email him too!

He's willing to let it go for $150 - I'm willing to let him hang on to it for nothing!
