Now, here is a real 3-for bargain. Send the money and I'll pick them up for you. You can get them from me (as is, in photo) when you visit Florida next. Bring me a nice FW and I will provide room and board. LOL

It made me sad but I didn't think of the dignity angle.

A real beauty but I'm out of $ and it is a bit rich for my blood. Don't think that I could talk them down to my usual $10.

I can think of only one word here...Pathetic. Maybe they would pay me to take it away.

The two bottom machines aren't so bad - the first one makes me wary though. Looks like it was washed up onto the beach in sunny FL...

Maybe it's because it's a treedle. I don't think a Singer Treadle would be worth that, but perhaps the treedles are more rare...?
