I understand your wanting a Featherweight that has been cleaned, polished, serviced and tested, and is "like new."
I have one for sale. My husband services FW's as a hobby and completely goes over them, tests them, and repairs/replaces needed parts. The machines and cases are also cleaned, polished, and look beautiful. Most of the gals in my quilt guild have FW's puchased from us. Not one has been returned or have there been complaints. The FW is currently have for sale belonged to a dear friend who passed away recently and is in top condition, has been serviced, cleaned, and sews like perfectly. I am asking $350 plus shipping. Contact me if you are interested -
