This one isn't very common here. I think I've only seen a couple for sale in the whole time I've been collecting but there's just no way it's worth that much.

I like that pattern too but actually wouldn't mind having one of any of the 28s or 128s.

I have a 128 knee lever that I can't seem to get rid of and I was asking less than 1/12th that price! The only people who ever asked about it perhaps weren't smart enough to operate it. I had full pictures of all sides and the accessories with it, the shuttle etc, of course said it was fully serviced and working and I got one email that said "Does it have a motor? Does it work? Has it ever been serviced? Does it come with a bobbin case and bobbins or any accessories?"
I replied to that one that we'd decided to keep it and took the ad down.
