I'm on a machine diet for a while. The st Francis thrift store in Fairborn, Ohio has 5 machines in cabinets right now. There's a nice 15 clone and a nice blue Morse. $30 and $40.

Somebody get them!

I'm on hold until I catch up with the last 5. It's killing me though.

I don't think they are open on Sunday Linda. They are small cabinets if that makes any difference.

My area has been dry as a bone lately. All the sellers on CL have joined the $100 dollar club. And that's for ho hum machines. There were a couple in Pittsburgh but I had two family members in the hospital, didn't feel like handling the stress of going to meet a stranger about a machine.

I just get so angry when I see the great deals in the mid west or anywhere but down here. But did they come with manuals and/or attachments?

I have yet to receive a manual with a machine. Maybe one. I don't remember there being attachments for these machines but I didn't look for them either. They could have been there. They all had pedals and were tested by Ron (the guy that works there). Ron is a pretty solid guy, I like him.
Our CL is pretty dry right now, a few $100+ machines. There's a Kenmore in a table in the newspaper here for $25. When I first started in August there was a ton available but it was garage sale season too. I think the Texas market is really hard for some reason.
