Hmmm. I can see the pictures. I wonder what's wrong. I know that the dimensions are larger than the pictures I selected to post.
Yeah, the eBay effect has raised prices generally, I suspect. Many CL listings say something like "These are selling for $600 on eBay so $300 is a great deal" (and it's a 15-90 in decent but not great shape). People (want to) assume that just because an eBay seller lists something at a certain price, it's selling for that price; they're merely trying to inflate bids. And there are a lot of flippers on CL.
I've found great deals in the larger thrift stores, though. They need to move inventory so the prices come down after a while. $9.99 for a Pfaff 130 in this condition? Amazing. What's so odd is that other folks who saw it before I did didn't recognize its quality. Makes me feel like I'm strange, in a way.
