[quote=wesing]OK, I'm going to jump in. I saw Starlight/Jan's post a while back with her Compac machine and I just loved the look of it. I watch CL and evilbay for several things, so I started watchine for old machines. I found this one on ebay that noone had bid on. I probably paid too much for it, but I love the color, and it looked pristine.
The SN is A468011. There are no scratches, it purrs like a kitten, and it makes a nice stitch. I honestly can't believe it has ever been used. The only bad thing is the case is sort of beat up and it smells.[quote]
I love that machine! The color, the shape, and especially the crome face plate! I just tried to find some information out about the Compac and wasn't very successful. They are from the 1940/50's and made in Japan as Sharon said. I think there is one for sale on E-bay right now, black with a starting bid of $59.
Congratulations on your find!
