Guess what? No bobbin case. I e-mailed her, but I'm sure I won't hear back. The machine does run, feed dogs move etc. but my $75 find isn't such a great find anymore if I have to purchase a $35 bobbin case:< Ack.
Which one did you choose? Try PMing Billy, lostn51, and he may be able to help you out.
The 301A. I've got her all spiffed up and besides the missing bobbin case it seems in good shape. Of course there's some paint gouges and dings but I'm going to use it, not put it on a shelf. I cleaned and oiled it and will hold my breath for a few days waiting for the seller to *hopefully* find it.
Is $110 a good deal never-the-less?
