Default temptation!

I'm going to St. Louis . . .

I need intervention . . . these aren't even what I'm collecting (but I sure love the way they look!)

Or a bigger van . . .

Though that last one has a "ruff butt" so not sure I want that . . .

So what's wrong with road trips? For the price, can't be beat! Good Luck and have fun. I would be giggling just cause it's a good deal all around!!

Of the three cabinets machines you posted I like the cabinet the Dressmaker is in. Those without drawers for storage just don't do it for me.

I like the Morse the best.

I would be finding new homes for the cabinets. There would all get put in bases for display. So I'm going for the "pretty" factor.

Hi Cathy,

With good marketing you could probably make a few bucks and save the old girls from some ignoble fate. They deserve better than languishing in someones basement.

I agree - but at least they got the price right!

So far I'm up to three - should be picking a GE Sewhandy and a nice Wilcox & Gibbs in a really neat wooden case tomorrow AM. These I had not planned on, but I got a message from someone yesterday asking if I was interested. Great timing, had they waited a week I'd have turned them down as it's too far to drive just for them.
