237 Fashionmate in stand for $50
Athena 2000(?) not sure on price
Singer 15 in stand for $85
Singer 127 Sphinx with not very good decals in treadle for $100
2 Singers in the old wood domed lids..have no idea what they were...prices were $125 and $200. Neither were in good shape
2 Jones treadles (one with singer foot irons). Cleaned up nicely already. Each were $95
Singer 127 Sphinx with VERY nice decals. Decent cabinet. Price was $135 but I asked and the owner would take $115.
I'm thinking about the last one. It looked nice. I think it was missing whatever the bobbon sits in. I dont know anything about those different bobbins. I took a couple pics I will post tomorrow.
I also found a Wizard on CL for $50, but its a few miles away.
Machines are just way to expensive around here.....
So, does anyone think a sphinx is worth $115 in cabinet? The decals are in very good shape.
I bought mine at goodwill for $30, decals not too bad, It cleaned up real nice, just had to refinish cabinet.
