After wanting a Featherweight for a number of years, I found one in a thrift store for $200, then I'll be darned if I wasn't at an estate sale, when I found 2 more, one in the box, and the other, someone has spray painted it turquoise and didn't do a good job, but anyway, got both for $70, then another estate sale, found another one, wasn't priced, asked the gal how much it was, she asked me what I wanted to pay for it, I said, no, YOU tell me what you want for it, said how about $20.00, I said you got it, she said there was another machine outside, she showed me where, was a 401 for $10.00. You just never know what you'll find out there.
