If u were closer, I would trade you. I have a singer in a cabinet and since my daughter is moving in with me, she wants to take over my basement (sad and glad at the same time) I'll have to put it on Kijiji no room for it

I thought she wanted $60 each but she wanted $60 for both! They had belonged to her mother and aunt and she was just cleaning out and had no idea that they were worth a little more than she asked. My younger daughter's white featherweight (purchased new in 1963) was given to her by a neighbour who was cleaning out her mother's house and didn't want the machine as she didn't sew. As I really don't need three featherweights I am hoping to trade one for a nice 201 or 301 Singer in a cabinet.
