Check your local EBay and Craigslist -this will help give you a better idea what they sell for in your area. Mine is only worth from $75 to $125 here. But in NW Ohio it goes for $200 My sister lives in Fla and she just paid $500 for the same machine and cabinet as mine. Her cabinet needs the top re-veneered. I've put thousands of miles on mine and Myrtle still looks and sews like she's brand new.
