I would say strictly a collector's piece. I am sure it's worth it for its rarity, age, condition.

Default Super special 301A

Now this one is special. Just read the entire ad. Now this machine may be worth what he's asking but.... I just don't know so I'll let other experts on here decide.

But, if you're looking for something portable, have I got a deal for you! http://dallas.craigslist.org/ftw/atq/2780368780.html.

Umm...I just don't see how you could convert a sewing machine into a pottery wheel? http://dallas.craigslist.org/mdf/art/2779149122.html.
I'd rescue the Singer 306 just to save it from being turned into a pottery wheel?? How is that even possible?
Maybe I need some of whatever the seller is on?? ROFL

This one is still listed - I called about it. She wanted to know what questions I had -I asked if it has a spoked wheel (I want to make a hand crank machine) - no. I asked what she wanted for it, she said to make an offer, I said I would need to see it first, but from I could see $30 tops. She complained that it was a rare antique machine. I told her that it wasn't a 15, it was a 66, I could tell by the design and from the serial number I told her the year and that 50,000 were made from serial numbers assigned during just that assigned day. She really wanted to have more (a lot!) - and to have me close the deal before even seeing it in person. I have no idea of the condition and she wasn't willing to let me check it out. She told me to text her when I decided. Haven't texted her and I don't believe she will sell it. I did buy a La Vincendora from eBay this week, so I need to play catch up and restore the NewHome and put a crank on the new one before I even look at any others!
