Text messages go something like this...
Me: What kind of machine is it?
He: All I know is it is a Singer and it was my grandmothers Christmas present in 1952.
Me: Could I see another pic or 2 from diff angles?
He: Why certainly.
Me: Looks in good condition. Is it?
He: I think so. It does run when plugged in and the light turns on. It has a light on it.
Me: GPS says I should be there at 11:47
He: Awesome! I'll meet you there.

Knowing firsthand the pain and subsequent envy, then full-blown jealousy that comes from such posts, I will refrain from adding just how much I paid for this little complete gem about 20 miles down the road. Someone posted here about finding $15 FW's @ local thrift stores recently. So, all I'll say is this is just as I received it today and I haven't smudged a drop of oil on it or dusted it. It's almost as new as it was in 1952 and it is complete plus.
Wasn't going to buy any more for a while until I caught up on my projects...but this ain't a refurb and I wouldn't have been able to live with myself when I saw someone else posting it along with the price they paid.
