The black ones are a lot harder to find. I've been watching for one for several months now.
Hmmm- I have a sister that lives in Madison . . .
I agree - the price is getting up there, and I would not pay that much if it's got to be shipped. If a person wants a 319, the green ones show up on ebay all the time. I probably should go for a green one, as I have a black 301 and I don't own any green Singers yet.
