Having been an antique dealer in the past....some of those are pre- 911 shop prices. I have sold treadles for $3-500, but now things are so different....So is the new pre-war and post-war era? We used to use those terms when referring to WWI or WWII.

Ok....if I had the money to burn, I'd probably buy the cabinet. The machine? Heh! Not so much!

Kind of makes me think of the ant and the rubber tree - He had high hopes! I think all of these sellers do too. LOL.

Great thread - here's some from my area:
http://ottawa.en.craigslist.ca/atq/2746887546.html $500 Pheonix (?)
http://ottawa.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-se...AdIdZ340977938 $525 for a 1950's machine (not in good shape).
http://ottawa.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-se...AdIdZ337698331 $500 treddle.
http://www.usedottawa.com/classified...ation_14225214 I certainly hope the machine in the picture is not the one that is used for the alterations...unless the alterations are done by a 7-year-old?
