Well my featherweight arrived today, it also has a broken part. The pressure foot life lever is broken off...also came complete with a broken needle...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr big time...I was so excited to unpack it..I was a bit gun sky of this ebay seller but went ahead and purchased it. I'm sure I can replace the part easily but that's not the idea..
That old saying, "If you think it's too good to be true, it usually is!
