Default Domestic High Arm Treadle in Coffin Top cabinet. Worth it?

I'm going to look at this machine tomorrow, but I fear I've already fallen in love. Don't know much about domestic machines though. The lady selling it has had it for just over a decade, and never took the coffin top off. It was in a Bed and Breakfast she bought and never took a second look at it until now. She said there's a bunch of accessories and stuff in the drawers for it. She's asking 75 for it. What do y'all more knowledgeable people think? Worth it? Looks like these were made 1863-1870s. By the way she's also got a singer treadle iron stand and another iron stand she's asking 25 and 20 for, respectively. Here's her ad: http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/atq/3062756714.html. I'm going to look at it tomorrow and decide if I need to adopt her or not.
