Please see my post above concerning negotiating for a Singer 201. Yesterday while making the rounds of our local thrift stores, I ran across another 201-2 in pretty good shape, but in a rough Mid-Century Modern cabinet. I already have four of 201's so I really was about to pass it up until I asked what they would sell it for. The manager said that they considered sewing machines in cabinets as "furniture;" and, "Oh by the way, we are having a sale on furniture - 60% off the $30 price." 201 number 5! Do you also sense a problem here? I reeeally like the 201!
