There are lots of them out there and if you are patient, they go cheap!! Keep an eye out on www.shopgoodwill.com and craigslist for any in Nevada (You'd need to pick it up-shipping would be outrageous!) They are simple machines, so it doesn't take much to get them running. I bought mine for $50, got an old quilt with it to boot and only had to replace the belt (cost about $6.00), oiled it up and fussed with the tension, and it was good to go!
