Congratulations. If the price is right and it is in working order and the wiring is in good shape it will be an excellent addition to your sewing experiences. The nice thing about the FW is that it is an easy machine to repair if it needs any repairs. There are great tutorials on just about everything that might need repaired on a FW. The FW store is great and a good place for the best information. I purchased mine for $125 sight unseen on craigslist about a year ago.
