buy it and pretend it's a cabinet. don't tell that it's got a machine inside. say you've been wanting a lamp table over ......there!

OK - you made your decision! Now, go on with your life.............go sew something on another machine and put this one out of your mind. They keep popping out of the woodwork it seems and when your ready there will be another, prettier one to wonder about ............ (((HUGS)))

She's a beauty. Any possibility you could get her sewing and gift her to someone in your family who has the desire to sew on a people-powered machine?

Sell one of your current machines, THEN buy this one....otherwise, pass. Or sell dh.....smile....just kidding...maybe....

Yeah, that would be my thought, too. I know how much we ALL love machines, but if you really are trying to downsize, I'd pass,too.

Oh I absolutely adore my singer 15's!!! My dh said when we move I will have to sale them and I said "think again"!
I could never let those go, I may sale my 99k though.

I would grab it in a minute...if the price is right.

I would buy it. Thinking of times I have passed and then wished I would have bought it! I think it's opportunity that doesn't come all the time. Someone higher up is looking out for you!!

I hear you! I have 9 machines. My very first (an old Imperial) an industrial singer, 4 old hand cranks, a treadle, a Phaff. a Euro Pro Shark and of course - a serger. Just a couple of days ago I wanted to buy a Singer Featherweight, but the gentleman at the store wouldn't sell it to me, but I will try to talk him into the sale. I simply cannot resist those machines. Don't pass if you really want this machine. You may never have the same option again.
Go for it!!
