I think that "at least" $2000 might be a hard sell. "
She replied. She said she's selling it for her mother, and the mother set the price but there's some wiggle room.
I suspect that she'll be storing it for her mother for some time, especially with an ad worded that way.
Here's today's:

"Comes with wooden 6 drawer storage basket. (175.00) Old Singer , portable k99, in case, immaculate condition."
Because showing a machine in a garbage bag with no lid always says "immaculate condition" to me. The "basket" must worth $130+, because I have a hard time selling clean serviced 99s with their cases intact for $50 here.
