Crap! I just passed one of these up at a garage sale for $25! I didn't know they were worth so much! :p

I don't think it's a coincidence that there are 0 hours on it since the rebuild. I don't remember... does a 237 have plastic in it? If it does, with that motor, the bang will be spectacular!

I wonder which attachment it is,... maybe it's a crocheted button,.. :p
Or something like the Singer book that shows you how to make lace on a straight stitch machine....

Pat's grandma would shake a stick in this child's face for that - what a shame

I don't understand the lack of punctuation in so many of these ads.....do some Craig's List cities charge extra for that or something?
