If it is worth that much to them then they should keep it.

Well, as I said, I e-mailed her about it and boy did I get an ear full. Here's what she said: "I got your message from Craig's list. Check out Ebay. There is a 1906 Singer sewing machine with cabinet on there for 999.00. So if your able to get one that completely works, like mine, with parts and is in good condition for 20 bucks, go for, or don't. But if your not interested, don't let me hear from you, stop wasting my valuable time with your smart a$$ emails, got it??? I have a life and don't have time for you."
Guess I won't be replying.

PS: I just couldn't let it go, I replied.

$65 is about what we paid for DH's 30 years ago at a "junque" shop with a much nicer cabinet. It also has the Egyptian motif except where he has worn it off.

just because it is ON ebay does not mean it will sell at that price.

my rule of thumb in these situations, don't try to tell people what they don't want to know.

Yeah, maybe for now on I should just keep my mouth shut. So much for trying to help someone out. Oh well.

I have the same cabinet in pristine condition with a Singer 115 that works great and only paid $135.00 for it! Keep looking, the one in your ad will probably be there a while. I think they have stars in their eyes - or could that be dollar signs?

Does anyone think I should just rush over and buy this? LOL

Gorgeous but how did they come up with that price? :(
what a joke...it was NEVER appraised for that...NEVER...even now at their highest peak in sales it would not bring $300!
No, this is not right!!!v mine was a mere 60.00 I don't think this person ought to be trusted.. what a joke!!

That price is way too steep. Ask them to see the appraisal!
