It seems to go in waves here. There will be nothing for months, then suddenly they're everywhere. I passed on a Singer 101 for $20 and a Singer 15 for $15 just a couple weeks ago. Both were in really good shape and I wanted them both but realistically...I don't have the space for as many machines as I want and they were both in (ugly) cabinets. If it had been a 201 and/or a 301 I'd have bought them, though, and just left the cabinets behind as a re-donation. I like machines in cabinets but I do NOT have the space for more. I went back a week later and someone else had grabbed them. Good! I hope that someone else is enjoying their machines!
