But it's been reduced by $208. How can you resist? LOL! Looks like they had one offer in April. Doesn't that tell them something? Maybe that's where the fantastic price reduction came in. The machine doesn't even look like it's in very goo shape. Course, a good cleaning would do wonders. I can't believe it when people list something like this without so much as dusting it off.

People can a (Ask) what ever they want on EBay, that certainly doesn't mean they will get it, sometimes (often) they do not even know what they have, or have any idea its value. Sometimes it is funny to browse the listings and see the item a person ( thinks) is a real treasure. That machine will probably be one you can check on for years & watch where it goes - or how long it takes for the seller to give up. My $20 1956 singer was a real treasure find for me, in perfect, clean shape -- I've seen the same machine in terrible shape being offered for hundreds.... Crazy

Gee whiz! Who could turn down a deal like this...FREE Shipping, wowee. At least, it provided me with a good giggle this morning, and I needed one.

If you look carefully - the pictures below the ad are NOT of the same machine. I sure would not send any money!!!

I thought the prices they ask here in Australia are excessive.....Singers must be rare in the Czech Republic.
