No, no, no!!! Waaayyyy too much for a 99!!! Plus, it is heavy, so shipping will be expensive too (and packaging, as machines are often damaged during shipping because they need special packaging).

$250 plus shipping would be an okay price for a featherweight in that condition, but not for a 99.

He is kidding you about the 250.00 isn't he? As everyone said, it is a Singer 99, a 3/4 size machine that is the same as a Singer 66 in every way except the bed length. It even uses the same belt.

It is definitely not a Featherweight which is a more dainty, lightweight (11 # hence the name) machine. When you pick up the two machines, there's no comparison in which is which...

Way too much for that machine. We collect them and the most I have paid including shipping was $76.00. I think his price is high because he thinks he has a Featherweight which it is NOT. The 99 weighs about 17-18 pounds. Good Luck.
