If you had a choice of two featherweights, for the same price, that were both in good condition -- how would you make your decision?

This is a situation that I may be facing. Keep your fingers crossed.

I'd buy them both! :-D

If one had a scroll plate, I would take that one...they're so pretty! If they are both in good condition, I would take whichever one I could get! I don't recall ever reading that there were any "bad" ones, like bad model year cars.

I may lean toward the older of the two, but I've never had such a dilemma :)
I also love the older faceplate but to be honest I love them all. Good luck!!!!!!! :D:D

I would go with the older machine, or the one with the best decals.

So, are you going to pm me the name of the seller for the one you do not choose????? Inquiring minds want to know!

Same seller. I'll let you know.

Thank you--have a friend looking--hers is worn out...

I'd also buy them both. I have recently purchase a 1937 and a centennial model. If another comes up at a good price, I may buy it also (but can't let hubby know) lol. I'm hooked.

If one of them had the seam guide on the needle plate, I'd get that one.
