The Salvation Army store near me, always over prices sewing machines, they all start at $100 for the portables and $200 + if its in a cabinet no matter condition of said cabinet.

I have noticed that depending on where you live, prices can vary quite a bit. New York prices seem to be 2 to 3 times what they are in Chicago. At least on Craig's List. Near me, the Goodwill sells machines in cases for $20 and in a cabinet they are $50. They reduce the prices from time to time on them as they sit. It is their way to move stale merchandise. I know someone that recently got a nice Kenmore in a cabinet for $4.99 at a Goodwill near Chicago.
