I think I made a big mistake by joining the QB because now I really, really, REALLY a beautiful antique sewing machine! The more I look, the more I like. That being said, I found one on Craigslist that is a pretty black Singer. Those of you with experience, could you please tell me what questions should I ask in reply to the CL ad, and then--if I want to see the thing based on their reply--what should I look for in person? I don't want to be swayed by beauty alone, or overpay. Prices out there range from $25 yard sale stuff to $450 and sometimes the cheapies appear better than the pricy ones. Please help. Today is my birthday and I feel like splurging, so I truly need wisdom and self-control to keep from making a mistake!
