Just keep looking and have patience. After looking and watching for a couple of years I went on Craigslist one day and got lucky. One had just been posted for $50 about 30 seconds before I saw it. Had to go to a fancy part of Seattle to pick it up but for that price it was worth it. A few years later I found the cabinet for it the same way, at a garage sale posted on CL for $25. Funny thing is, it's not my favorite machine. It's just too small for me to take seriously. My 7yr old GD has claimed it and it will go to her when I die if I haven't given it to her before then.
