If I had friends or family in that area I'd be the proud owner of the machine with the enclosed arts & crafts style treadle that passed thru there a week or two ago. THAT was a beautiful machine and IMO worth the expense of shipping. Too bad my finances didn't allow it.
I'm pretty sure my wife would say no to the Bantam. Christmas is around the corner and it would be difficult to justify the expense to her.
There will be others.
