The sewing machine wasn't his in the first place, its his moms and he sold it to u when she was in the hospital. Please don't email me anymore. Thanks." So, the seller stole it from his mother and sold it to me. I'm so sad for his mother. And this guy was very nice to me, shook my hand, told me if I had any problems with it to contact him. etc. etc. This is a big lesson learned for me about how disgusting people are! I e-mailed the girlfriend back and told her I wouldn't be contacting her again. But, that if the mother wants her machine back she can e-mail me about it. Just terrible... I'm sorry you were partially ripped off but I'm almost hoping the above story was a big lie. It aches my heart to think of a woman in the hospital while things important to her are being sold off behind her back. I hope you can find a reasonably priced bobbin case. |

I'm thinking a prior owner didn't want to keep replacing them and filled in the feet area with some concoction? It is easy to scratch it out, if I want to do that. Just wondering if this was a common thing to do?
