I was checking on featherweights and came across the website from a fellow who refurbishes featherweights and has a 221 for $800 which is completely gone over from top to bottom, case is refurbished and like new comes with 5 bobbins,instruction manual
oil,several attachments, and more. |
No I would not. There are plenty of FW out there in very good shape for a whole heck of a lot less than $800.
|
H*** No!
|
Way too much, keep looking!

Nope.
|
I know where 2 are right now for $375 and $400 with all the attachments and ready to sew!
So, NO on the $800!! |
$800.00 is way too high, keep looking. Some times ,great buys on ebay.
|
WOW! I almost fell out of my chair! Way too high on the price!
|
No way. But if it were a 222 . . . maybe.

Nope. I got a nice Featherweight on Ebay for $218 and my husband found another one that was very nice at an antique shop for $300. Keep Looking. It took me awhile to win an auction on Ebay but it was worth the effort.
|
no that is way too much
|
NO way,NO how.TOO much $$$$.Ridiculous!
|
Put me down as another no. I'd have to think twice about going much higher than $300.
|
NOOOOOOO...There are guys that refurbish I know in RI and they sell gorgeous machines for 350.00 all done up shiney and new....
|
Absolutely NO!! There are lots of beautiful featherweights out there that are less than half of that.
|
I recently saw two, a roughed up one for $250 and a spotless one for $350
|
No! That is way over priced.
|
NO WAY!!! Not even if it were painted teal with a pink lightening bolt on it...
|
Nope! It's simply not worth it.
|
No way!
|
That is way overpriced. I would not buy it.

HOW MUCH????? I have just bought one on e-bay in UK for £57!!! Just had it completely overhauled by mechanic and he told me its the best machine he's seen in ages!!!! It came with lots of extras, original oil can etc. There are better bargains out there!! Hope you get as lucky as me!!! The mechanic charged me £40! So for less than £100 I have a first class machine!!
|
I paid $400 for mine which was in superb condition with almost equally good case and had all the attachments including buttonholer. It has worked very well for me and I expect it to continue to do so.
|
no way
you can't even sell an over the top stunning FW in my area for $400. they run from $150 to $300 around here - if you ask for more no one buys them - they just sit on craig's list forever |
What they said. No
|
No way. I snagged one on ebay recently for $170. My only issue is she stinks, but many of them do. I did see some guaranteed not to have odors for $500, but that's still too much in my book.
|
NO WAY! ARE THEY CRAZY????????
|
No and H*** NO!
|
oh my goodness- some people really think they've 'got something' and like to (take advantage)
might be someone related to one of my sister in law's= she has antiques in her garage that have been sitting there for 15+ years- while they go hungry===because she thinks they are worth way more than anyone would ever pay for them- i guess to her they are worth that much- and that person can keep their machine= because it seems to be worth an aweful lot to them :) |
You could get 2 or 3 of them for $800!!!
|
Well, if you decide to buy it, I have some ocean front property in Az that you might consider too!
|
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
|
no...I see them all the time for under 100.00
|
That is too expensive for for it is. I waited for one and found one for FREE! I would pay up $300 for one in excellent condition with lots of attachments, original case and manual.
|
No it is only about $600 over my budget.
|
Not Even if I won the Lottery. Did this guy plate it with 24K gold and diamonds? He is asking wayyyyyy too much for it. I bought one two years ago on ebay for under $200. and it works great. I have just finished piecing a queen sized quilt top on it, and start the quilting on it today. Keep looking. I picked one up last month at a moving sale for $100.00 with oodles of attachments. Seems to sew fine, but DH needs to check light out, it flickers on and off. I haven't had time to really check it out, but it does sew.
|
No I got mine on ebay for 156.00 and is just fine that is way to high priced
|
Absolutley not. If I had that kind of money I would put it toward a machine with a larger harp area. A good Featherweight can be found for much less, just take the time and wait until the right one comes around.
