Default Singer featherweight - what did you pay for your?

I got a 1969 white FW at a pawn shop for $230. Took it to be serviced at a cost of $100 ( it needed a new foot pedal). I absolutely love that machine. I saw a 1940 FW at a garage sale today for $300. It had lots of attachments, but one of the latches on the case was broken. I asked the lady if she would take any less, and she said she was pretty firm on the price - it had been her grandmother's and she was really debating whether or not to sell it. I told her I totally understood. She asked for my name and number, which i gave her. She's moving across the country in May, so she may come down on the price as she nears her move. I don't really it, but I rationalized that I could give my white FW to my grand daughter.
So what did you pay for your FW?
