I've visited family and picked up two machines from them. They're roughly about 600+ miles away. One was a Riccar Treadle (Singer 15 clone) that was my grandmothers. I rescued it from them. They had a flooded basement and was considering getting rid of it. The second one was a 15-91 Singer that I had my cousin pick up for $15. It was in their local Craigslist and I thought it was a great deal. lol
