I don't know but that's a good thought. I may do that after we pay for doggy surgery and some other bills. I do covet that machine but struggle with where would I put it and would I use it like it should be used. In a way, I'd almost rather have another 301 cuz I love mine so much!!!!!!!!!

If you bring a printout of closed auctions with you, they may come down a bit. Otherwise, put a wanted ad on CL or be a little patient and wait for one to come up in your price range.
Candace; Hadn't thought of that. It may be worth a shot to see if the exspensiver comment really is true.

Nancy,
How is Mowgli? I do hope the recovery is going well for Mowgli, and that you are okay too.
Will you be able to make it to the Turlock TOGA Saturday?

Found this, and can't rescue it myself. Maybe someone in the area who is good at talking down prices could pick it up. Looks like someone took care of this Damascus.

Nice machine, and the price is not bad either for that outfit!

Mowgli is doing amazingly well - running around on 3 legs! No, I cannot make the Turlock TOGA. I wish I could but I can't be gone that long right now. DH is good with Mowgli for short periods of time. I was on Jury Duty yesterday and worried about Mowgli! I couldn't be gone over night right now.

Chris, I have been off the board for a couple days with my little Mowgli and Jury duty. You are going to have to go through doggy surgery too? I hope it is just a simple spay or something?

Wow Anamaria, that is a nice set up and price! I can't get it, though, no room and no money after paying for Mowgli's surgery!
