So, you must live in Colorado? Lucky you! I've seen many machines on the Denver Goodwill site that I would have loved to have bid on, but were pick-up only. Prices are often quite good there because of the no shipping policy. That Viking 150 is a cool looking machine. I know nothing whatsoever about it, but there are several good reviews on line. You might want to just throw in a low bid (~$35?) and see what happens. You might be surprised. I've gotten a couple of nice machines that way.
