Hey gang,

What are your opinions on the Singer 185? I'm very saddened that my deal for the 201 fell through, when the seller suddenly changed his shipping policy after I made the purchase, and wanted to charge me $450 to ship via UPS. I was very upset, but got a full refund. I managed to nab a 185 from Canada (no need to worry about a voltage converter!) for $35.00! I was wondering how many of you have used one and what you think of them. It's a gorgeous green and the wiring looks like it's in great shape! Comes with the original manual and sewing attachments. It just needs a good cleaning, and a new belt.

What do you guys think? Good deal? I figured at that price, I didn't have much to lose. She originally wanted $100, and I negotiated down to $35, by mentioning the belt, the need to verify the wiring, etc. The person hadn't a clue about sewing machines. Looks like a UK case too, which I'm curious about.
