We are only dealing with sewing machines, and sometimes overpriced!
I agree, Annamaria! We all find bargains here and there...if someone puts a Heads Up on here for a particular person, well, those ads are posted online and anyone can see them!! Who knows how the eventual buyer sees the ad? I am certainly no mind reader....

Anything for sale on a public posting is fair game....if someone is looking for a particular machine, they just need to be doing their homework and really looking. That's what I did to find my 2nd Davis....I got it for a fair price, and had to drive a distance to get it, but it was what I wanted.

As Glenn said, this is a Free Enterprise country. Supply and demand will always set prices...but there are literally millions of machines out there, and new ones show up every day. Let's not get all hung up on this...we'll all be looking over our shoulders soon to see who is sneaking up to grab our machines!
