Joe, I agree for most machines, but when you are collecting really early machines, you kinda have to take them where they are found/offered. Or wait YEARS for one to show up on my side at a sensible price...
I just shipped the Jones Treadle to Texas and I am starting to break down the W&G treadle I have now for shipment.
I would rather sell it to a collector for $150 + Shipping than sell it locally to some dipsnort for $300-$400.
Just my attitude towards it.
